Character Information
|
Brunella Pommelhorst is a Physical Education teacher at Springfield Elementary School. She has blond hair and is almost always seen wearing a whistle.
Ms. Pommelhorst takes a tough-as-nails approach to teaching and to life in general. When a teachers' strike takes place at Springfield Elementary, she leaves her class the moment the strike is called -- even leaving a little girl clinging to gymnastics rings and calling for help.[1]
She is also a big fan of Xena: Warrior Princess, to the point that she takes oaths by Xena. One such oath nearly leads her to fail Lisa in gym class. However, in a rare break from her tough-as-nails demeanor, Ms. Pommelhorst relents and allows Lisa to make up her grade by taking private lessons so she can pass gym.[2]
Ms. Pommelhorst has announced that she is taking a leave of absence to undergo gender reassignment surgery. According to Principal Skinner, she will be returning to the school as shop teacher Mr. Pommelhorst.[3]
Trivia
Ms. Pommelhorst's last name is very likely derived from the gymnastics apparatus the pommel horse.
