Supernatural High School
Every school has its problems; superhero school is no different. Phoenix Academy High School only caters to one type of student - potential superheroes that need a little extra help. While other superhero schools might expect perfection, Phoenix Academy knows better. Whether it's the inability to go completely invisible, trouble getting animal sidekicks to listen, or just a lack of consistency or longevity, Phoenix Academy can help any student to reach their full potential. ​​​​​​​Dean thought everything was fine, until he got that blue envelope in the mail. Sure, he might not be the best at school, but was he really the worst? According to the letter, he was. He'd been recommended for a transfer to infamous Phoenix Academy for his final year of high school. Now, if he wants to have any chance at superhero certification, he's going to have to overcome his fear of heights long enough to actually fly more than a few feet off the ground. If he can't, his superhero career is over before it even gets started. But with accidental force-fields blocking his way, lights flickering on and off at all hours, and a student who can look like anybody, Dean hopes he's up for the challenge. 🔹Updates every Friday🔹

Any teenager knows that starting high school is the worst experience of their short lives. You're forced to associate with cliques, follow antiquated rules, conform to stereotypes, and also, be a hero. Except, for us, the last one is a little bit more literal. Not only do we have to navigate through high school, but we have to hold the pressure of being the next generation of superheroes as well.
