Family
  • Vanetta Teagues (mother)
  • Ayesha Teagues (sister)

Janine Teagues is the plucky and optimistic lead of the series who works as a second-grade teacher at Abbott Elementary. Throughout the series she remains unjaded by all of the things the school lacks and strives to make sure her students have enough to learn and grow.[1] While helping the students of Abbott, Janine also deals with challenges and relationships within her personal life.[2][3]

During the events of the first season, Janine is looked over by the staff of Abbott, particularly Ava who bullies her numerous times. Within the season, she dates Tariq, who she has been with since the 8th grade. She struggles with the thought of ending her relationship with Tariq; with the staff of Abbott siding with their breakup. At the end of the season, she breaks up with him when he decides to move to New York City to endure his career as a professional rapper.[4] In the second season, Janine struggles to get over Tariq and has troubles paying her rent, since she originally split the bill monthly with Tariq. In "The Principals Office", while trying to rekindle Melissa's relationship with her sister Kristen Marie, Janine describes her complicated family history, with a mother who never paid her any attention and a sister who lives in another state. In "Candy Zombies", Janine reveals to Barbara and Melissa that she has no outside-of-work friends following her breakup with Tariq; however Erika, an old friend of Janine and Tariq, supports Janine and invites her to parties to increase her social mobility. Janine invites her distant sister Ayesha to visit during "Fight". She is asked out by Gregory's friend Maurice in "The Fundraiser", which makes him jealous.

Relationship with Gregory

While hinted at in the pilot episode, Janine and Gregory have a friendship that is apparent in almost every episode. Both teach classes next to each other and have developed a special bond. In "Holiday Hookah", Gregory and Janine almost kiss for the first time outside a hookah club before being interrupted by a phone call from Amber.[5][6][7] However following his break up with Amber, both Janine and Gregory share a drunken kiss at a teacher conference.

When asked by late-night host James Corden about the relationship of Gregory and Janine, Tyler James Williams stated:

It depends how long they want us to go. I can confirm this—that Quinta has not made a decision about ‘will they or won’t they?’ I think everyone assumes that it’s a ‘will they?’, that they will eventually, but she is just like… ‘I’m not positive they’ll go that way.[5]

Their relationship has been compared to that of Jim Halpert and Pam Beesly's relationship from The Office, which already shares many similarities with Abbott Elementary.[5]
