It’s time to head back to school. While Riverdale will be taking place seven years into the future moving forward, that doesn’t stop the gang from returning to their roots. The CW has released a new description for season 5’s sixth episode, in which the Core Four are, surprisingly, teachers at Riverdale High. It also seems like after fighting to keep the school’s doors open, Archie and Toni are still working together and Polly makes a return.
The official description for “Chapter Eighty-Two: Back to School” reads:
“BULLDOG PRIDE — Archie (KJ Apa), Betty (Lili Reinhart), Veronica (Camila Mendes) and Jughead (Cole Sprouse) prepare for their first day as Riverdale High’s newest teachers. Veronica introduces her husband Chad (guest star Chris Mason) to the group after he shows up unexpectedly in Riverdale. After realizing they are out of funds, Archie and Toni (Vanessa Morgan) turn to Cheryl (Madelaine Petsch) for help restarting the football and cheer teams. Finally, Betty, Kevin (Casey Cott) and Alice (Mädchen Amick) follow a lead after learning that Polly (guest star Tiera Skovbye) may be in trouble. Mark Consuelos, Charles Melton and Drew Ray Tanner also star. Gabriel Correa directed the episode written by Ariana Jackson (#506). Original airdate 2/24/2021.”
