"Because she's not an amazing student Aitana's participation in the exchange program is mostly dependant on her mandatory joining of the Meadowview volleyball team. " Most high schools require a student to have good grades in order to stay on the volleyball teams. Perhaps Volleyball could be her reason for having barely-passing grades? The threat of being kicked off the team might be enough for her to take her studies more seriously, if for a small amount of time. ;D
Her "Athlete" virtue strikes me as being a hobby instead of a virtue, while her 'Goofing Off' hobby could easily be worked into a virtue. I suggest you switch these around, as "Athlete" stresses what she likes to do, and "Goofing Off" is all about her attitude towards life when she's not doing anything physical that requires her concentration.
Does her apathy apply only to other people? What about when she's playing volleyball -- will she care for her teammates and watch out for them during the game, or is she the sort who will tell someone who just skimmed their knee to go suck it up and go sit on the bench for being a sissy?
With her abilities, I REALLY like how you've used the competitive nature of trees as a basis for her attacks. <3 When it shields her allies, does it shield them individually? Or does it become as wide as needed to shield them? Can she move when she's channeling the energy? Or does she just steal the energy and apply the shield to her allies?
I place my vote for "Your growth has been stunted" or "Your growth is about to be stunted" as a challenge, just because of how it ties into her first attack. <3
Her super attack needs to be a power-up of the first attack. While the method of "borrowing" energy is still in place, her super attack needs to be about her shielding her allies with a stronger shield OR her super attack needs to be changed so that she gains a power boost.
I agree that 100-150 feet IS pretty high. Perhaps consider the idea of tricking someone into
thinking they're falling from that heigh while they only fall a short distance? Keep in mind that battles tend to take place on Destiny City, so falling from 100-150 feet and onto concrete might result in a huge
splat! without branches/trees/bushes to break your fall. xD
I'd like to have a rough estimate of exactly what you mean by "a great height," personally. 7-12 feet (one or two stories) could work.

You may want to incorporate tree branches/limbs into her eternal attack, just to help break the terminal velocity of the fall.
As well as to give people bruises on their way down. 8D
