(WPHL) — Everyone’s favorite second-grade teacher will receive Philadelphia’s Key to the City later this month.
Quinta Brunson is being honored as part of a special event on May 28, dedicating a mural to Andrew Hamilton School, the institution that inspired her hit show “Abbott Elementary.”

Mayor Cherelle Parker says Brunson doesn’t just represent the spirit of Philadelphia on television but also brings her success home and shares it with the city. Brunson, the creator and star of “Abbott Elementary,” says she is honored.
“I am so grateful to be receiving the key to my hometown, Philly,” Brunson said. “This city shaped me—and now I get to give back with a mural that celebrates all it gave me.”
