Lack of focus on education: The show is primarily a workplace comedy and tends to focus on the interpersonal dynamics among the staff at Abbott Elementary, rather than on the educational needs of the students.Unrealistic portrayal of school: The show exaggerates the chaos and dysfunction of a typical school, which can be misleading to viewers who are not familiar with the realities of the education system.Do you agree?
