Introduction
Abbott Elementary is so much more than just a show about education – it is a well-crafted situation comedy that is even more than comedy. Abbott Elementary fuses humor, heart, and the reality of real public education, and does so in a fun and engaging way. It has quickly gone from a “cool” show with smart writing, identifiable characters, and cute/quotable lines to one of the best sitcoms of are time.
Whether it be the hilarious throwaway line from Principal Ava or the random emotional moment from Janine, there is at least one overly comedic moment that we will remember forever.
We compiled a sample of nine Abbott Elementary quotes that are hilarious, but more importantly, genuine.
I’ve been here at 7:00 a.m. and I still haven’t cried.
This line from Janine is amazing, as a ball of emotions, it sums up being in a public school. It is a fun, sarcastic reminder that the little things in the life of an overworked teacher (e.g., not crying) can feel like championship-level victories.
I’m not just a principal, I’m a visionary… with Wi-Fi.
Principal Ava Coleman states this quote with her obnoxious bravado that everyone in the school has come to know and love. It’s one of the funniest quotes from the series and highlights how Abbott Elementary creates humor out of philanthropy, absurdity, and ridiculousness.
They said I would never be a teacher. They weren’t wrong, but here I am.
Another classic Ava line. This one is a mashup of self-deprecating humor and brutal honesty. It makes fun of unqualified authority figures while remaining sweet. It has become one of the most meme able quotes for a reason.
We don’t have supplies; we have heart.
This is said during one of the heartwarming moments in the show and speaks to the heart of underfunded schools and teachers who do whatever they can with whatever they have. Simple and so powerful.
It is undeniably correct that: “You can’t teach heart, and I’ve got a ton of it.
I thought Gregory Eddie delivered this with a great interpretation, authentic, if a bit self-deprecating. In the end, teaching is more than just nuts and bolts; it is heart. I love how much it is romanticized, but also the effort and sincerity combined with honest weight when it is said.
If I get one more email on glue sticks, I might scream.
This quote captures the routine torture teachers go through with constant, sometimes silly emails. A funny quote that every teacher—and office worker—can relate to.
My superpower is pretending I understand district policy.
Barbara Howard, the wise old teacher, delivers this line as well as the rest of her lines with the same charisma and wit she exhibits on the show. This is a tongue-in-cheek diss on all levels of bureaucracy and how veteran teachers circumvent it.
Kids are like Wi-Fi. They only connect when they want.
This metaphor from Melissa Schemmenti is brilliant and epitomizes the unfortunate reality of dealing with kids. It also captures the randomness you can have with students being unpredictable in an authentic way.
Being a teacher is like being a magician…without the money.
Abbott Elementary again, this quote illuminates what the show has to say. Teachers make magic happen all the time with little to no resources, and this quote captures that kind of spirit in a funny and inconsequential way.
