It's Official -- Jennie Garth to Join 90210 Spin-off!

Jennie Garth is returning to her old 90210 zip code.

Her character, the spoiled Kelly Taylor, is now a guidance counselor at her alma mater, West Beverly High, according to a statement from the network.

Rumors swirled that she was returning to the series after she dropped out of a CBS pilot called My Best Friend's Girl last month.

CBS and CW, who are producing the spin-off, even hint that others from the original may return — calling Garth "the first cast member to reprise her role."

Garth starred on 90210 from 1990 to 2000 alongside Luke Perry, Jason Priestley and Shannon Doherty.

Since departing the teen drama, Garth has appeared on Dancing With the Stars and What I Like About You on The WB.

Full House star Lori Loughlin has also signed on. She's been cast as Celia Mills, a former Olympic medalist and mother to central teens Annie and Dixon.
