About

Twelve-year-old Mia is sent to a school for monsters, where she must hide that she is human from her classmates and a suspicious vice principal.

Twelve-year-old Mia Munster (voiced by Lilian Jane Gartner) has long felt out of place, both in her city and in her own family. After problems at school, she is sent to Rotwood Academy. There she discovers that her new school has no children, only monsters. Mia realises that no one may know she is human; if it comes out, she will be in serious trouble. The vice principal, Van Vlad (voiced by Michael Ostrowski), dislikes humans, and Mia fears that he has seen through her attempt to pass as a monster. Along with her pet rat Quentin, she tries to keep up the pretence.
