Ms. Phipps is one of the school nurses at Springfield Elementary School along with Lunchlady Doris, who doubles as a nurse.

History[]

Ms. Phipps is quite jittery and nervous all the time. This may have something to do with her apparent paranoia about illnesses and germs. This is proven when she quickly jumps to the conclusion that Bart, after clearly faking illness, has amoria phlebitis. During the snow day, she played hockey with Principal Skinner, Edna Krabappel, Dr. J. Loren Pryor and Moe Szyslak.[1]

Character 10

On strike, with blue hair

By the time of the teacher strike, she seems to have dyed her hair blue. This might have been an animation goof.[2]

Behind The Laughter[]

Ms. Phipps first appeared in 'Bart Gets an F', voiced by Jo Ann Harris. Throughout season 2 and 3 she made semi-regular non-speaking background appearances. Following her second speaking appearance in the Season 3 production episode Kamp Krusty, where she was voiced by Maggie Rosewell, the character was mostly abandoned.

In Season 6 and 7 she made two background appearances, and again in Season 12 to 13. She has likely been forgotten.
