Cast and characters

Main

• Quinta Brunson as Janine Teagues, a second-grade teacher at Abbott and hopes to improve the lives of her students by making the best of the poor situation the school district makes teachers work in.
• Tyler James Williams as Gregory Eddie, a first-grade teacher who was initially hired as a substitute replacement, and who harbors a crush on Janine.
• Janelle James as Ava Coleman, the school's tone-deaf principal who consistently bullies Janine and gives the staff reasons to believe she is poor at her job; a job in which she received after blackmailing the superintendent.
• Lisa Ann Walter as Melissa Schemmenti, a second-grade teacher at Abbott who has questionable connections with the Philly locals, but uses them to help the school.
• Chris Perfetti as Jacob Hill, an eighth-grade history teacher who tries his best to help Janine with her plans to improve Abbott.
• William Stanford Davis as Mr. Johnson, the school's janitor who is seen as lazy, but consistent with his job.
