Abbott Elementary Season 1, Episode 12 summary: Will the teachers save the school?
A couple of episodes back, the show revealed a secret, which will form the base of the upcoming episode. It was revealed that Ava Coleman got the job of the principal by blackmailing the Superintendent because she caught him cheating on his wife. In exchange for withholding the information, Ava got whatever she wanted from the school board, which also explains why she took her job so lightly.
In the same episode, it was also revealed that the superintendent has now left his wife, rendering Ava's tactics useless. He also intends to come for Ava now. In the upcoming episode, Ava has to give a great presentation, failing which the Superintendent will pull all the funds from the school.
The official synopsis for the episode, as released by ABC, reads:
"With the school board threatening to pull their funds, Janine and Gregory decide to help Ava out with her presentation; their plan is derailed when a curveball is thrown at Ava; Barbara offends Melissa when she doesn't agree with her blackmail idea."
You can expect to see an exciting episode as the stakes are high and the future of the school depends on this presentation. Despite the help from Janine and Gregory, it would be a difficult chore as the Superintendent is already biased against Ava Coleman.
Brittani Nichols served as the writer of this episode.
