Don’t Miss Abbott Elementary S5E6: Release Date, Time, and Where to Watch

Abbott Elementary is back with another midseason pivot, and yes, the next episode is landing soon. If you caught last week’s Halloween detour, you know things got messy in the woods in that very Abbott way. Here’s what you need to know about what just happened and when the next one drops.

Previously: Halloween goes camping, what could possibly go wrong

Season 5, Episode 5, titled 'Camping,' turns Halloween into a field trip. Barbara finds out her kids are plotting the usual holiday nonsense, so she takes preemptive action and sets up a camping excursion for students and staff. The students are into it. The adults? Not so much. Cue spooky campfire stories, a healthy dose of chaos, and a couple of side quests: Janine quietly laying the groundwork to launch a club at school, and Jacob accidentally wandering off and spending the night alone in the woods. Yes, overnight. Yes, he is exactly the teacher you’d expect to do that.

What Abbott Elementary is about (quick refresher)

It’s a workplace comedy set in a Philadelphia public school, following teachers who actually care, a principal who is... not always helpful, and a district that rarely makes anything easy. They’re underfunded, outnumbered, and still show up every day for the kids — even when the system doesn’t.
