SOLVED. YA Fantasy series, Harry Potter sort of book - A kid who is recruited to a magic school. Read 2011-2016.

[Dominic]

The book is like Harry Potter where its a kid who goes to magic school and is an outcast but a secret is hidden from him. He goes and get better at magic, while making friends, he also learns more about the secret being kept in this school. He also faces many attacks from someone or something. The book is a series and it is YA Fantasy. They were hardcover books and I remember one them had the kid flying a sort of yellow looking creature with wings and a leopards body and its body looked like it was made of stone. I read these books in elementary in 2011- 2016. Plz let me know if yall can remember the name of these books because I enjoyed them a lot. Thank you!
