Jessica Simmons

Jessica is a third grader in Mrs. Fink's class at Lakewood Elementary School.

In earlier episodes, she is seen in other classrooms around the school besides Mrs. Fink's. One example was in the episode "Arthur and the Real Mr. Ratburn". The creators of the show most likely moved her around to suit the needs of the storyline.

Appearance
Jessica is a rabbit with a cream complexion, with long blonde hair. She wears a lavender colored shirt, light blue colored pants, and brown shoes. During the fall and winter time she wears a purple coat.

During the summer she wears her lavender shirt, short lime pants, and red and white sneakers. When it comes to swimming as shown in the episodes D.W.'s Backpack Mishap and Binky vs. Binky she wears a light blue colored swimsuit.

Personality
Not much is known about her, since she is a background character who does not speak often, but she appears to be friendly and hangs out with the other kids.

She competes on the swim team and the Lakewood track team, and was a member of the Lakewood Pride Committee during its short existence. She is also in Puffeau's cooking class. She is a fan of the Scare-Your-Pants-Off Club books as well.
