Mrs. Jewls's class

Mrs. Jewls teaching in her classroom.

**Mrs. Jewls's class** is the classroom located on the thirtieth story of Wayside School. In the books, it originally belonged to Mrs. Gorf, but was transferred to Mrs. Jewls after Mrs. Gorf was transformed into an apple and eaten by Louis. In the cartoon, it appears to have belonged to Mrs. Jewls for a long time, as a flashback in "Age of Aquarium" shows Mrs. Jewls beginning her job what is presumably at least a decade ago.

In the *Wayside School* book series, between twenty-seven and twenty-nine students are taught in this class. (Benjamin Nushmutt only starts appearing in *Wayside School Is Falling Down*, while Sue only appears in the *Sideways Arithmetic* series.) In the cartoon, fifteen students from the books return in *Wayside: The Movie*, while Elizabeth is added starting with "Pull My Pigtail."

## Seating arrangement

### Books

While some seats remain consistent throughout the series, there is no consistent seating arrangement for Mrs. Jewls's class. In fact, there are various contradictions seen throughout the series.

* In "Sharie," Kathy sits next to Sharie. In "Up and Down," she sits next to D.J. In "Eric, Eric, and *What's-His-Name?*," she sits next to Eric Ovens.
* In "A Bad Case of the Sillies," Eric Fry sits in front of Allison. In "A Story with a Disappointing Ending," he sits next to Paul, who is stated to sit in the back row in "Paul."
* In "Todd" and "The Best Part," Joy sits behind Todd. In "Science," she sits in front of him.
* In "A Story with a Disappointing Ending," Jenny is said to sit in front of Eric Fry. In the same chapter, she is said to sit next to Leslie, and in "Jenny," she is shown to sit next to Dana. Dana sits in front of Stephen, who in "Breathe" is stated to sit between Rondi and Jason.
* In "Forever is Never," Rondi sits next to Allison. In "Breathe" she sits next to Jason, and in "A Million" she is said to sit one desk over from Terrence. In "Spelling," she sits next to Sue, though Sue does not appear in the main series.

### Cartoon

In the cartoon, the seating arrangement of Mrs. Jewls's class is much more consistent.

While animation errors are present in a few episodes, usually the positions of the students are kept in this relative order.
