It all begins when young Will Stronghold, the son of the two famous
superheroes: Steve and Josie, A.K.A. the incredibly strong, seemingly
invulnerable Commander and and the high-speed flying Jetstream. However,
Will does not actually know if he has any powers of his own, and has not
told his parents this. He and his best friend, Layla are facing their first
day of a secret school in the clouds like none on earth: Sky High, the
first and only high school for kids with super-human powers going through
crime-fighting puberty. But with no apparent superpowers of his own,
however, Will seems destined to grow up a mere sidekick. But as he
discovers his true strengths, he'll also learn that it takes loyalty and
teamwork to truly become a hero!
It all begins at a secret school in the clouds like none on earth: Sky
High, the first and only high school for kids with super-human powers going
through crime-fighting puberty. At Sky High, the student body throw flames
with their footballs, study Villainy with their Chemistry and are divided
into Heroes and Sidekicks instead of jocks and geeks. It's an
out-of-this-world yet completely recognizable place where cool gadgetry,
rampant bravery and awe-inspiring magical skills mix it up with parental
battles, peer pressure and dating trouble--with explosively fun results.
This year's class features some of the best, brightest and most powerfully
gifted super-teens ever assembled. And then there's Will Stronghold. When
you're the son of the world's most legendary super heroes, The Commander
and Jetstream, people expect you to live up to the family name The problem
is that Will is starting with no superpowers of his own and, worst of all,
instead of joining the ranks of the Hero class, he finds himself relegated
to being a Sidekick. Now he must somehow survive his freshman year while
dealing with an overbearing gym coach, a bully with super speed and a
dangerous rebel with a grudge (and the ability to shoot fire from his
hands)--not to mention the usual angst, parental expectations and girl
problems that accompany teenage life. But when an evil villain threatens
his family, friends and the very sanctity of Sky High, Will must use his
newfound superpowers to save the day and prove himself a Hero worthy of the
family tradition.
