Back to Knight School

"Before we begin, let's start the very beginning, I, Ellenor, was a student as Yeoll High who got transferred to Knight School after I sucked at medieval history. During my time there, I had to learn about medieval history and live it. Long story short, I found out this dude, Wellington Snide, who was Gerald Reginald's assistant, was a bad dude that was gonna rule the world with this awesome, magic staff from his dead relative; I was gonna stop him until he stabbed me in my chest with my own sword, but I was saved by my boyfriend Lance and he healed me to health. I resumed kicking Snide's butt and used the staff to send him into the sky, never to be seen again. And that is the story of my life."– Ellenor, recapping the movie's events to the press
Back to Knight School is a Slice of Life Sequel Series to the Cartoon Network Studios feature film Knight School. After the film's events, Ellenor goes about her everyday life and wants to ace her classes in the titular school before graduation.
Chelsea Kane voices Ellenor in the series in place of Anna Kendrick; returning voices from Knight School are Ben Schwartz as Lance, John Cleese as Gerald Reginald III, alongside Seann William Scott (until Season 2 where he'd be replaced by James Arnold Taylor) as Andrew, Chris Hardwick as Bill, and Jerry Trainor as Troy.
The series premiered on Cartoon Network on June 17, 2024 and later streamed on HBO Max on June 20 before ending on September 1, 2025, under request, so Shaquille can go on to work on Knight School II.
== "That's the story of my tropes!": ==
* A Day in the Limelight: Many of Ellenor's friends and family receive many episodes, but the Knight School employees Reginald ("Reginald's Episode" and "Mike and Reggie"), Mike ("Mike's Day Off" and "Mike and Reggie"), and Begley ("Discussing New Management") are the most rare characters that receive the spotlight.
* The Bus Came Back: "Happy Birthday, Ellenor" features Uncle Bob making his second appearance after Knight School Before Christmas.
* Fire-Forged Friends: All the students and Ellenor have gotten on good terms after the film's events, especially with Andrew, even if they'll still be snarky towards each other.
* Grand Finale: "Graduation" serves as the show's finale and only 22-minute episode. It focuses on Ellenor studying to be a Class V student before graduating from Knight School.
* Previously on...: As shown in the quote above, the very first episode "The Story of My Life (So Far)" has a cold open that recaps the events of Knight School to bring the audience up to speed.
* Pun-Based Title:
** The series itself, obviously a play on the saying "back to school".
** The Season 2 premiere, "Knight School's Out for Summer", which centers on the students going to the beach for summer break.
* Temporary Bulk Change: Happens between Ellenor and Darcey in the episode "Growing Student", where Ellenor is given baked goods by her Aunt Winnifred, which she shares with Darcey; the two end up gaining weight after two months.
