And strong agreement here. IOU will give you a great grasp on "silly school" settings in general, and presents one which can be used pretty much as-is for supers. In fact, someone did a great Pyramid article on just that subject; if I weren't so lazy, I'd find it and link to it.
Would you recommend Supers over Powers, if one had to choose one or the other?

And how about School of Hard Knocks? Versus IOU?

And thanks everyone for the input! You guys rock!
