Ms. Fanny Adolf is a teacher who appears in both the book and television series. She is Hank's teacher who despises even the concept of any thing fun. She is very harsh towards students in her class who don't understand the lessons, like Hank Zipzer. She is normally seen wearing all grey, seeing as it is a colour that reassembles evilness, which associates greatly with her harsh personality.
Fanny Adolf wanted to take over Westbrook Academy to turn it into a prison-style school, where students are carefully supervised, where underachieving students are punished until they get better at the subject, which failed. She is also a fencing competitor, in which she keeps her swords in a cupboard inside her classroom.
She is also the deputy headteacher of Westbrook Academy.
