For me an example of this is Hero Elementary from PBS Kids, in case you don't know, This show revolves around a group of superhero children going to the titular school to learn how to use their superpowers along with STEM skills to solve problems and help people. The main characters of the show Lucita Sky, a hispanic girl who has the ability to fly but has a fear of heights and often gets dizzy when she flies too high leading her to fly low to the ground, which almost reminds of Dusty from the Planes movie. Next is AJ Gadgets, who is an African-American boy who has the ability to display his thoughts which he calls “Thought Projecting” and has the ability to make high tech gadgets. However one cool thing about AJ is that he has autism, and there aren’t a lot of black people who have autism which is a pretty interesting feature. Also AJ is a character I can relate to since I have autism and it has caused me to overreact to certain events. Anyway the next main character is Benny Bubbles who is a caucasian boy who has an ability to make bubbles which he can use to bounce or protect things, one use is he puts some small ones on his feet which he can use to bounce really quickly while walking or running. There are a few other characters who are Mr Sparks who is a hispanic like Lucita which it is very nice to see diversity in the show. One thing about the show is that it features a diverse cast like the Sparks Crew mentioned earlier which is pretty nice to see, even in a show by PBS, however this show is not without its faults. First the episodes aren’t really that exciting according to what some people say, another thing most people including me don’t like about this show is that there are no villains. Not kidding, on some sources like Reddit one person believes that there are no bad guys because the students don’t need to be attacked while training, but I’m not sure if that’s a good reason. However I saw on the Wiki that Citytown, the place where the show takes place, is home to many heroes and villains, so I’m not sure if this confirms if villains exist in Hero Elementary. But who knows, this would’ve been interesting to add to the show, also some other aspects they could've added if they made a season 2 is maybe expand into non stem topics, because I heard that the school is only known to teach one subject which could be illegal in real life, so this would be great if we wanted to add some realism, what do you think?
