The way she insults Penny carries a certain level of cleverness and wit, showing she is well-read to a degree. Of course, she doesn't seem to fare well in P.E., and Coach Collins implies [=LaCienega=] has given half-assed excuses before.

* EveryoneHasStandards: She's bitchy and nasty toward Penny a lot of times even going into the series' revival, but she still shoots Dijonay a look of disapproval when she lies about selling out Ms. Hill then gets exposed for it right after in "Home School". It's not so much Ms. Hill getting fired that disturbed her, since she hated Ms, Hill along with everyone else, as it is that Dijonay snitched on someone for financial benefit. But the biggest example by far is in "Juneteenth" where she is vocally disgusted at knowing Smithville's founder was a slave owner, joining in the protest to have the city's name changed and the first to refuse leaving jail.
