Can Anyone Recommend me Magic/Superhero School or Guild Stories?

Here's what I've read so far.

  1. Worm by Wildbow (Superhero "guild")

  2. Mage Errant (Magic School)

  3. Harry Potter Series (Magic School)

  4. Vita Nostra (Magic School)

  5. Super Powereds (Superhero School)

  6. The Circle Series by Sara Elfgren (Magic within normal School)

I've also read The Magician but I didn't liked it.

I may have forgotten some other books but hopefully this narrows it down.

Bit of a stretch, but Rick Riordan's mythology books (Percy Jackson and its sequels/spinoffs) tend to involve magic school-type settings.

Way back, I believe I read the first 10 books of Percy Jackson + Jason. I liked it, I don't know why I dropped it in the end. (or maybe the latter books weren't released yet because this was in 2013).

Thanks for the suggestion thoug.

IIRC, Trials of Apollo went from 2015-2020, so the timelines do add up. He's also done similar books for Egyptian and Norse mythology (Kane Chronicles and Magnis Chase)
