Hercules is nervous about starting school, especially since he has never attended a regular school before. He is used to being homeschooled by his parents, Zeus and Hera, and his mentor, Philoctetes. However, Hercules is determined to make friends and fit in with his classmates.

On his first day, Hercules meets a group of students who call themselves "The Olympians." The Olympians are the coolest and most popular students at Mount Olympus Academy, and they seem to have it all. Hercules is impressed by their confidence, but he also feels intimidated by their status.

As Hercules tries to fit in with his classmates, he finds himself struggling to keep up with their schoolwork. He misses the one-on-one attention he got from his parents and Phil, and he feels like he's falling behind in his studies.

To make matters worse, Hercules is constantly being bullied by a group of students who resent his heroic status. They make fun of him for being different and pick on him in class. Hercules tries to ignore them, but their taunts are starting to get to him.

Despite all his challenges, Hercules refuses to give up. He knows he has a lot to learn and that he can't do it alone. He seeks help from his friends, both old and new, and together they work on overcoming their obstacles.

One of his new friends, Cassandra, helps Hercules with his homework and shows him how to study more effectively. Cassandra is a genius when it comes to academics, and she understands how hard it can be to adjust to a new school. She becomes Hercules' closest ally, and he soon finds himself falling for her.

Meanwhile, Hercules' old friend Icarus is also struggling with the new school environment. He feels left out of his own group of friends, and he starts to drift away from Hercules. This causes tension between the two friends, but they eventually work through their problems and become closer than ever.

As the days pass, Hercules starts to feel more comfortable at school. He makes new friends and starts to enjoy his classes. He even impresses his teachers with his raw talent and determination. But he never forgets the challenges he faced on his first day, and he knows that he still has a long way to go.

In the end, Hercules learns that school isn't always easy, but it's important to keep trying.
