The premiere of ABC's award-winning workplace comedy "Abbott Elementary" is right around the corner.

The series, created by Quinta Brunson, follows a "group of dedicated, passionate teachers − and a slightly tone-deaf principal − as they navigate the Philadelphia public school system," as ABC says.

This season is all about change, as faculty and students return for a new year marked by a school event, a new approach and a surprising question.

The third season of "Abbott Elementary" will kick off with a "supersized" one hour-premiere on Wednesday, Feb. 7.

Here’s what to know about Season 3, including the cast, premiere date and how to watch.
