"She grew up needing Abbott. Now Abbott needs her." ••• Abbott Elementary | Melissa Schemmenti x OC | Starting at season 2 ••• Samantha 'Sam' Sinclair never imagined she'd walk back through the doors of Abbott Elementary-not as a student, but as a teacher. At twenty-six, life has carried her through a turbulent childhood, a late-finished degree, and years of drifting between jobs, all while holding onto the memory of the one person who saw her when no one else did: her kindergarten teacher, Barbara Howard. When a sudden maternity leave creates an unexpected vacancy, Sam steps in as a substitute for a first-grade class, determined to give her students the same sense of safety and hope that once carried her. But returning to Abbott is more than just a professional choice-it's a collision of past and present. In the familiar hallways, amidst the soft hum of focused classrooms and the chaos of seasoned teachers, Sam is seen again in ways she thought she'd long forgotten. As she navigates the vibrant, unpredictable world of public education, Sam encounters the big-hearted, eccentric staff: the charmingly chaotic Ava, the skeptical but caring Gregory, the sharp-witted Melissa, and, of course, Barbara, whose quiet pride and steady guidance anchor her. Between classroom crises, hallway dramas, and the quiet victories of students who grow under her care, Sam discovers that home is not just a place, but the people who remember and believe in you. Back to Abbott is a heartwarming, witty, and deeply human story about the ties that shape us, the classrooms that hold us, and the courage it takes to return to the place where it all began. ••• Content Warning: Childhood abuse, Domestic violence, Parental neglect, Emotional abuse, PTSD, Trauma, Bullying, Substance issues, Crime, Jail, Medical complications, Anxiety, Loss, Grief, Emotional manipulation, Mild romantic/sexual themes, School-related chaos, SMUT

I looked away quickly. He stood from his chair, walking closer to me. "Does it not hurt to chew on it all the time?" "No, it doesn't," I said, looking to my feet. It was too difficult to make eye contact with him, especially when he stood so close to me. "I don't touch my eyebrow," he said quietly. "I touch the scar." I nodded, feeling my mouth go dry. "We all have our quirks," he said. "And I feel yours is more destructive than mine, Miss Y/L/N." "It's not destructive, not really. I know what hurts and what doesn't," I rambled, peeking up at him, finding his eyes heavy on my face. I averted my eyes. "Look at you," he muttered. "You can't even look at me." I felt as though my entire body was trembling as his hand grazed mine. "I thought you weren't shy, Miss Y/L/N," he said quietly. ••• How do you describe perfection?
