Plant a seed, plant a flower, plant a rose.
You can plant any one of those.
Keep planting to find out which one grows.
It's a secret no one knows.

What a day. The hustle and bustle of students was driving Sage mad with anxiety. No, it was ‘Ms. Berkley’ now, ‘Sage’ was a name for her friends and family to call her, at school she would need to demand respect to show she had authority. Sa-...Ms. Berkley was just starting out at SL Academy as a teacher, Class 1-A’s Homeroom teacher to be exact. She had been recruited barely before she could even accept her degree. Her promise in medical advancements through the ability to talk to plants and have them create specific toxins for diseases was revolutionary, she’d published multiple papers throughout the last few years and had many medals and awards to prove that she was worthy… Of course that was not why she was taken on as a teacher at the prestigious Sky’s Limit, no, it was because her cousin just so happened to be the principal and founder and had owed her family a favor.
Ms. Berkley didn’t exactly jump with joy over the fact that her mother had pulled strings to get her the career, she wanted to get a job based on credentials, not nepotism. But alas, the world still spun round and food and living still cost money. So she took the job with invisible reservations.
Today would be her first day to officially meet her students. Of course classes wouldn’t be til tomorrow but she would use this to be a means to introduce herself. After all, it was Ms. Berkley’s job to show the students to their dorms. Most of the students' rooms were furnished and ready as every student had already had movers pick up their belongings to be moved into their dorm rooms. Special accommodations were to be requested by any student as well for features in their rooms that would be needed to help them live more comfortably depending on their quirk. For example, low light for Garth or a hot tub for Rang.
Ms. Berkley had gotten through all the necessary training and paperwork and now she stood awaiting the students at the front entrance to the dorm building. She’d already helped a few students up such as Coda, Braze, Cosmo, Cutler, Rang, Alder, Eldin, Julian and Garth - But she still had quite a few to meet. She’d been practicing memory tricks to try and remember all her students' names but she was more of the type of person to put names to faces rather than names on a piece of paper to descriptions on the same piece of paper. She still awaited Calcifer, Aiden, Sara, Eli, Walter, Juliet, Romanova, Katja, Madison, and Finn.
She was a bit nervous, dealing with a class of 18 was a bit nerve-wracking, of course it could have been worse, she could have dealt with an even bigger class so she counted herself grateful.
Ms. Berkley let out a sigh as she stood on the path that led to the front ramp of the building. The falling leaves of autumn colors clashed with her pink and green aesthetic. It truly was a beautiful campus, the dorms weren’t far off from her Homeroom, but various classes were spread throughout the buildings.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Each student would have the same schedule save for electives. The mandatory classes were Heroics, History of Hero Society, Math and Science and English. Electives could be taken as well including Art, Drama, Music, Mechanics, Electronics and Gymnastics but they were not mandatory and each student can only take two electives max per semester. Electives were the last classes of the day if applied for. Every Wednesday normal classes save for electives were replaced with Rescue Training, Field Trips and any specialty Hero training. Times for these events vary and therefore don’t show up on the schedule.
A standard 1-A school schedule looks as such:

Finally a student arrived, it was Calcifer. He offered no words to the teacher outside of a brief smile and a nod. Ms. Berkley was a bit taken aback but she understood that some students may not be as talkative as she was. "Nice to meet you! My name is Ms. Berkley. I'm your Homeroom teacher! I hope you don't mind waiting for the rest of the students until we go up - I've already led the first group from the first timeframe up and you're part of the second and final!"
Cal nodded once more, choosing to stay silent. Mostly out of respect to the students who had not yet arrived, he didn't want any unfair advantage against the others by talking to Ms. Berkley, he would have liked all the students to get the same information.
Patiently Ms. Berkley awaited the rest of the students' arrivals.
