 * Lemonjella and Orangejella LaBelle (voiced by Tia Mowry and Tamera Mowry) - A pair of identical African-American twins. They have been known for getting in trouble by hacking into the school computers and deleting library fines. For some reasons, their scientific descriptions confuse Miss Kisskillya. They're shown to be competitive with each other.
 * Duncan Bubble - A silent boy who does not talk and always playing with a yo-yo. He uses his yo-yo to spell out messages to his friends (for example: "Thanks, you guys", "Boring", and "Yeah"), accompanied by an electronic voice reading the message. He is based on a deaf friend Bob Doucette had during production.
 * Shelley Kelly (voiced by Pamelyn Ferdin) - An optimistic and peppy girl who wears a Ladybug Scout uniform every day. She constantly kisses up to Miss Kisskillya and has a crush on Emmitt. As a result, she is often detested by the other kids, whom she wishes to make friends with. However, on some occasions, she is often an ally to the kids.
 * Ramone "Gug" Gugleamo (voiced by Carlos Alazraqui) - A short Latino kid with a short temper. Constantly left out of competitive sports, Gug constantly picks fights with kids twice his own size and has even wanted to take down Miss Kisskillya. He and Emmitt have their occasional rivalries, however, they both agree on their lack of patience with Jim.
 * Eugenia P. Kisskillya (voiced by Kathleen Freeman) - The physical education teacher and the detention monitor of Benedict Arnold Middle School. Having been a military sergeant in the Marine Corps, she bosses the children around like such and usually pronounces "detention" as "dee-tennnn-shun!!". The only student she likes is Shelley Kelly, who serves her as her "Teacher's Pet" and whom she refers to as "Private Kelly". Despite usually being oftentimes tyrannical to the children, she has been shown to be a nice person. She is based on creator Bob Doucette's grade school teacher who was a nun, as well as Freeman's character of the strict Sister Mary Stigmata from The Blues Brothers movie series.
