Elaine Gordon was a school teacher at Lucky Elementary School who taught both Ginger and Carl Foutley, as well as other students such as Hoodsey Bishop, Blake Gripling, Brandon Higsby, and several others. Mrs. Gordon was a stern but fair teacher who was often capable of efficiently handling Carl's and Hoodsey's crazy antics. Her trademark saying was "no one likes a kiss-up."
She unexpectedly passed away in "No Hope For Courtney", which upset all the students in Carl's classroom when they were told about it.
History[]
In "Dare I, Darren?", she tells the class of a former student of hers who is on the front cover a magazine. She tells Carl that she doesn't allow bets in her class after he makes a deal with Brandon. As class starts to dismiss, she asks Carl and Hoodsey to bring Blake Gripling his homework because he's out sick.
In "Hello Stranger", it is pet day and she thinks Mr. Licorice is adorable. She goes to tally up the ballots to see who the winner is. When she comes back she discovers that Carl was bitten by Mr. Licorice. She calls for an ambulance to assist him.
In "Cry Wolf", she wants Carl to go to the teachers' supply closet to get a box of chalk. The next day she asks Carl why he's dressed like a wolf. She asks Carl if he can still speak. Carl responds by saying his senses are still keen. He tells her that the twice baked potato she took from him last week is in the bottom left drawer of her desk. She writes Carl a note to send him to the nurse's station.
She tries to be as fair as she can. She won't hesitate to punish Carl or anyone else if they are misbehaving. In "No Hope for Courtney", she passed away on the night after her retirement party. Her cause of death is unknown although it can be presumed that it was from natural causes.
