Skoolchildren

Redirected from Gretchen
The following is a list of all the children who attend Skool other than Zim, Dib, and Gaz.
Aki
Edit

Added by BlossomofdeathAki is an Indian-American girl who sits next to Dib. She has dark reddish hair with a widow's peak. She sits with the 'cool kids' at Skool, shown in Bestest Friend.
Brian
Edit

Added by Invader ZIMILYBrian sat right next to Zim, and probably had the most lines out of the skoolchildren. He also appears in Vindicated!, getting bored and walking away before a dodgeball hits Zim. Because Ms. Bitters was getting tired of him, Brian was sent to the "Underground Classes" in Tak: The Hideous New Girl, implying that he died since he never returned (and also because in the commentary Jhonen said he was glad to be done with him). A much smaller child resembling Brian appears in a crowd in The Most Horrible X-mas Ever. He appears in Bolognius Maximus, mocking Zim, calling him 'Bologney-boy'. Brian was replaced by 'Poonchy, Drinker of Hate'. Brian was voiced by Jhonen Vasquez and his design was based on art director Bryan Konietzko.
Carl
Edit

Added by Invader ZIMILYCarl wears a red stocking cap that covers his eyes. He mentioned that he left his underpants on for a month in Bolognius Maximus. In Lice, he was infested so badly that he scratched through his cap, hair, and scalp, down to his bare skull. He also gave Melvin a wedgie in Tak: The Hideous New Girl. Carl was voiced by Jhonen Vasquez just like Brian.
Chunk
Edit

Chunk is one of the bullies that torments Dib, and occasionally Zim. He has orange hair, a thick red jacket and drools a lot. He likes dogs, as shown in A Room with a Moose, which contains his largest speaking role. In Dark Harvest, he threw a ball at Zootch during recess, injuring his spleen. Chunk was voiced by Adam Paul.
Dirge
Edit

Added by SpyroForLifeDirge is one of the kids at the "rejects" table in the corner of the cafeteria (along with Keef, Gretchen, and Matthew P. Mathers III), as shown in Bestest Friend. He has dark skin and wears a green skull t-shirt. He seems proud of his deformity (webbed toes) which he describes as "like some kind of horrible fish-boy", but everybody gets creeped out when he offers to show it to them. He is sometimes known as "Pooka" in the storyboards. He is probably named after Roman Dirge. He was voiced by Danny Cooksey.

Added by Moonwatcher333Flan
Edit
Flan is the kid who has cyan hair and freckles. He makes several cameo appearances, though most notably in A Room with a Moose; when GIR calls up several skoolchildren up to go on a "field trip," Flan is one of them.
Gretchen
Edit

In the second episode, Bestest Friend, she was shown not to be absorbant as well as other things, and failed Zim's best friend test. She was voiced by Antoinette Spolar.
Jessica
Edit

Added by BlossomofdeathJessica isn't in Zim or Dib's class, but she appears often enough regardless, notably in A Room with a Moose, Bestest Friend, and The Voting of the Doomed. She is one of the stereotypical popular girls and thinks lowly of Zim, Dib and the rejects. Like Gaz, she usually has her eyes slightly shut or squinting. Her hair is blond.
Keef
Edit
In Bestest Friend, Keef survives Zim's rigorous testing and is declared his "best friend". He then begins stalking Zim obsessively, until Zim finally replaces his eyes with mechanical ones that allow him a degree of hypnotic

Lizard Boy
Edit

Lizard Boy is arguably the most recognizable background character, but seen in only a short selection of episodes. Lizard Boy has one very interesting talent: By holding a drinking glass in his mouth, Lizard Boy can wiggle his tongue in his mouth while making a strange squeaking sound, which he demonstrated to a student in Parent Teacher Night.
Melvin
Edit

Added by Invader777Melvin gave a presentation during the Pilot. He ate paste in The Wettening, and was handcuffed to Dib after starting a lice infestation in the episode "Lice". His head floated off for a while after declaring that he wanted to be an astronaut in Career Day. He was also sitting at the rejects' table in Bestest Friend. He was originally voiced by Hope Levy in the Pilot, but it was later decided that Danny Cooksey would be Melvin's voice actor.
Mary
Edit

Added by Invader777Matthew P. Mathers III
Edit

Matthew is a cowardly boy that Zim dubbed a "squeally fool" when he ran away screaming after Zim asked him to be his friend in "Bestest Friend". He has pale-colored skin but is sometimes seen with normal skin. He was also seen with Carl dragging along with him in the hallway in "Dark Harvest". Matthew was voiced by Danny Cooksey.
Old Kid
Edit
Added by ZIM-CymeOld Kid looks like an elderly adult in a kid's body. He sits at the very back of the classroom. This character is actually based upon Don Newhouse, the security guard at the front gate of Nickelodeon Studios (who also appears in the SpongeBob episode "Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy") as told in the commentary. He has a small speaking role in The Nightmare Begins, and appears in "Career Day" as a fan of Count Cocofang. Old Kid was voiced by Jhonen Vasquez.
Peyoopi
Edit

Peyoopi is the girl with green hair in cone-shaped pigtails. She wears lipstick the same color as her hair, a pinkish dress, and stripy stockings, and often has a vacant-looking smile on her face. Like most of the other Skoolchildren, she loves the rain for whatever reason.
Penny
Edit

Added by Angie Y.A brunette girl with freckles, she attends Miss Bitters' class at the Skool.
Pigboy
Edit
Pig Boy is a pig student who, during The Frycook What Came from All That Space jumped out a window and 
Added by IContributeToTheWikiPinky
Edit

Pinky is a boy who appeared in Vindicated!, where he was seen to have a bad case of pinkeye. After Zim said that he had a case of the disease to cover up the loss of one of his contacts, Zita said "Yeah, Pinky's got it bad." According to Vasquez, the boy's real name is "Scarball".
Poonchy, Drinker of Hate
Edit

Poonchy has orange hair and is often seen with his hands in the air. He wears a sporty outfit with a headband, and loosely resembles fitness guru Richard Simmons. He replaced Brian in "Tak: The Hideous New Girl", walking to his new seat with his hands in the air and turning all around to make sure people noticed that he was there, and in Dibship Rising he mocked the Dibship, but didn't seem to realize that it wasn't Dib. He was to have a major role in the unfinished episode Invader Poonchy. Poonchy was voiced by Paul Greenberg.
Rob
Edit

Rob has two orange tufts of hair which look like horns. He gave Dib a severe, funk-accompanied wedgie on the bus in "A Room with a Moose". While being interviewed In Mysterious Mysteries, Rob tearfully denied Dib's claim that his dad is a yeti. In "Tak: The Hideous New Girl", Rob was transferred to the "underground classrooms", but later returned after Tak flees.
Rob's design was based on writer Rob Hummel, and he was voiced by Adam Paul.
Spoo
Edit

Added by BlossomofdeathSpoo is a boy with red hair, beady bluish-green eyes, pointy nose, and a green shirt. His organ was stolen and replaced with Dib's heat radiator hall pass in "Dark Harvest". He was destined to a fate of being a veterinarian in "Career Day", despite his apparent animal allergy. Spoo was voiced by Adam Paul, and Antoinette Spolar on one occasion.
Spork
Edit
Spork is a skool kid who shares his name with a former Almighty Tallest. Not much else is known about him, since he never made an official appearance.
Tae
Edit

Tae was the kid in "The Nightmare Begins" who told Dib that just because somebody looks different doesn't mean they are an alien and that Old Kid would be a alien too if it was like that. He has blue hair and freckles. He played a small role in the beginning of the "Pilot" when Dib tells him the new kid is an alien and then he responds "What new kid? You're crazy." He was voiced by Kevin McDonald.
The Letter "M"
Edit

Added by Invader ZIMILYThe letter M is a boy who seems to agree that Zim is weirder than most of the other kids, but still doesn't think he's an alien like Dib says. He sits between Brian and Dib. He is called "The Letter M" in both the credits and by the other students (or at least by Zita in "Halloween Spectacular of Spooky Doom"), and is never referred to by any other name. It seems to be a reference to the shape of his face with his pronounced widow's peak, which gives his hairline an M-like shape. He was voiced by Phil Lamarr.
The Skool President
Edit

The skool president is a disturbingly effervescent girl who suffered a mysteriously-induced seizure immediately after complaining about the dirty Skool bathrooms at a pep rally in "The Voting of the Doomed". She is whisked away by riot-gear-equipped Skool security, and an election for a new student president is held in which Willy triumphs over Zim. As of now her fate is unknown, as is what the Skool security did to her afterward. She was voiced by Kathryn Fiore.
Torque Smackey
Edit

Added by HomicidalKatTorque is a skoolchild only interested in sports and weightlifting. Torque wears a jersey with his name on it. Dib tries to protect Torque in "Dark Harvest", and in that episode Torque seems remarkably tolerant of Dib's weirdness. In the unfinished episode Ten Minutes to Doom, Torque starts to hate Zim because Dib said Zim called him a dookieweenie. Torque was voiced by Jason Marsden.
Willy
Edit

Deemed "leadership material" by the skool, but considered a bald, drooling moron by everyone else. In Bolognius Maximus, he was the last person to use the toilet before Ms. Bitters ordered Dib to roll around in it until he smelled better. In "The Voting of the Doomed", Willy was elected class president with Dib's help, then brainwashed by the mysterious principal, making him act more intelligent and speak with a British accent. Willy was voiced by Jim Wise.
Zooglodon
Edit

Zooglodon is the kid who got hit with a tetherball when Zim used Keef to whack it back in the episode "Bestest Friend".
Zootch
Edit

Zootch is a kid who got hit by a dodgeball thrown by Chunk in "Dark Harvest". His most defining characteristic is the single spike of hair in the center of his head. He might be another alien in disguise, as he is seen to have an alien doppelganger in Hobo 13. He is in Gaz's class, as seen in "Gaz, Taster of Pork". Strangely, however, he is also seen walking out of Ms. Bitters' class in "Career Day".
