It’s another holiday special as Abbott Elementary Season 3 Episode 12, “Mother’s Day,” celebrates mothers and all the complicated relationships the teaching staff have with theirs.
While Barbara and Gregory tend to their garden, the kindergarten teacher decides to invite Gregory to the Mother’s Day brunch her family is hosting.
It’s a sweet gesture, and not much is known about Gregory’s mother or why he can’t spend the day with her. So this could be an excellent opportunity to learn more about his childhood and break our hearts in the process with Barbara as leverage.

There is also a good chance that Gregory will run into his ex-girlfriend and Barbara’s daughter, Taylor, at this brunch.
Meanwhile, Jacob is scrambling to organize a school field trip and enlists the help of the rest of the staff to help him out. That includes Janine, who is back at Abbott and ready to step up and help her friends in the most Janine way possible.
And are Ava, Janine, Erica, and Jacob attending a drag brunch? We can only hope.
Check out the photos and promo video below for a preview!
