Hero High was a cartoon and live action series created by Filmation that aired as part of NBC's The Kid Super Power Hour with Shazam! It was about a high school where young superheroes were taught how to use their powers and fight crime. Originally intended to be a new entry in Filmation's long-running line of Archie cartoon series, the 1981 series was altered at the last minute because the company's rights to the "Archie" characters had expired; nevertheless, one can easily tell which was originally the Archie character, the Reggie character, et cetera.

The recent 2005 Disney superhero family comedy Sky High has a premise very similar to the show, with the only key difference being that the Disney characters are in their everyday civilian clothes, not in spandex costumes.
