Edna Krabappel.png

Edna Krabappel Flanders (more commonly known as Mrs. Krabappel or, known by Bart as Mrs. K) is a 4th Grade teacher at Springfield Elementary School. Before Edna was married she lived at 82 Evergreen Terrace and now lives at 744 Evergreen Terrace. Edna is a heavy smoker, whose love-life is often visited in the series.

Edna was born January 21, 1961. She holds a Master's from Bryn Mawr College, but is thoroughly jaded, a caricature of the American public school system, as evidenced on the occasion when Lisa steals all the teachers' editions of the textbooks (which contain the answers). Edna genuinely wanted to help people in need but it after years of frustration thanks to the school, and Bart Simpson in particular, this wore away on a somewhat tragic note.

There is some inconsistency about Edna's origins. Though she is said to have come to Springfield to begin teaching, she can be seen running through the background in Springfield High School in when Clancy Wiggum is being videotaped as a hall monitor.[1] Krabappel, like many other teachers at Springfield Elementary School smokes heavily, especially during school hours. It was also once implied that Edna Krabappel drinks heavily, as when Marge arrived at the school to use a restroom and stumbled upon the horrible conditions of the school, she noticed Edna Krabappel's class where Bart felt he had to sleep in class and uttered "stupid teacher," to which Edna was also sleeping in a similar fashion to Bart and uttering "stupid hangover" and once got fired when she became drunk (although the latter instance wasn't her fault, as her drink was spiked by her students in order to help her become laid back.).

On October 25, 2013, Marcia Wallace died in her home in Los Angeles after a battle with breast cancer. Due to this, Simpsons executive producer and showrunner Al Jean revealed that Edna was not going to be the character that was being killed off in the season 26 premiere but the character will now be retired. It is currently unknown how the character will be retired.
