Ross Duffer's Instagram Post
Miss Harris is played by Hope Hynes Love. She was our high school drama teacher. High school was rough for me and my brother. But Hope saw something in us we didn't see in ourselves — and she helped give us the confidence to not only survive those four years, but to move to LA and chase our dreams. Shoutout to all the teachers out there making a difference. And please…let's prioritize the arts in schools.
Story Context
Miss Harris appears amid season 5's chaos, her fate uncertain after volume 1's cliffhanger. Fans hope she returns before the December 31 finale without facing a demogorgon. The series wraps with a full release schedule available online.
