Just a thought on world building: with over ten million residents, would there really be a "Metropolis High"? "Smallville High" makes perfect sense, but there isn't a similarly named school in New York, Los Angeles, or Chicago — no one school would take a large city's name for itself. It would be more likely to be named after some politician from the city's past, a president, or for a neighborhood it's in. Or you could take a cue from "Coates Orphanage" and name it for someone associated with Superman. 
Sorry, you'll have to blame Teri Hatcher for that one. Metropolis High (with the Lions as their mascot) is the name of Lois's alma mater in IaSWAA. Otherwise, I totally agree with you. (John and I had a similar conversation during his work setting up 'Jo and Jerry' which is also set when Lois and Clark are still in high school; although a very different type story.) Sorry for highjacking your FDK thread, Shayne.
