Have you guys ever skipped school before?

<p>Don't know if this thread is a duplicate, but w/e. </p>

<p>I've never skipped before, though I've 'planned' to plenty of times. Just a couple weeks ago, my friends and I planned to skip school to go see a movie (paranormal activity). I told my sister about my plan and she said I could get arrested if I get caught, so I freaked out and that never happened. It's my senior year and I want to skip once before I graduate, but for goodness sake, I'm such a wuss!</p>

<p>Where do you guys go when you skip? I see kids skipping like 1-2 periods at school, but they stay in the bathroom :l</p>

<p>I practically live at school these days.</p>

<p>I’ve only skipped school before because I didn’t finish my homework lol</p>

<p>I’ve never skipped my high school classes before, but I skip my Dual Enrollment classes all the time. I’d rather just read the information from the book than sit in a class with 700 other kids listening the the professor. I still go like 80% of the time though.</p>

<p>So… is it skipping if your parents know?</p>

<p>I skip school a lot. I’ve even skipped like a Tuesday and Thursday. Just stay at home, sleep.
I usually miss around one day every other week.</p>

<p>And I’m still on high honor roll.</p>

<p>Oh please, you can’t get arrested. Unless if you’re doing something awful anyway, and then the police will question you.</p>

<p>I only skip when there’s an assembly at the end of the day that’s completely pointless. And sometimes I tell my Digital Graphic Design teacher that I have SOOO much homework and then I go out to lunch with my friends who have that period free, but I don’t think that counts because DGD is a joke of a class. I guess the only real time I skip classes is when I go to the library instead of orchestra to finish an assignment.</p>

<p>I skipped first period before because I didn’t finish my essay for my third period class. I fell asleep and didn’t wake up in time, so I had to finish it during the morning.</p>

<p>

LOL, I get it.</p>

<p>^</p>

<p>What’s there to get? Am I missing the joke? :l</p>

<p>

I don’t get it.</p>

<p>He’s in college, so he lives at school in his dorm.</p>

<p>Oh that’s kind of obvious…</p>

<p>only when I wasn’t prepared for a test lol. It’s CC what do you think</p>

<p>Does it count as skipping if you call in sick? …Multiple times a month?</p>

<p>I don’t know why, but people laughed at me in school when I told them I skip, but my parents knew that I was skipping. I guess that’s what CCer’s consider skipping, in contrast to skipping without your parent’s permission.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Haha, that’s what I did in junior high. I go to an online school now so it’s kind of hard to skip. I never skipped dual enrollment classes because I loved those (except theater…)</p>

<p>^
How do you go to an online school? Can’t you just cheat on tests by looking up the answers?</p>

<p>^Actually, someone probably could if they wanted to. I haven’t figured out how anyone would know. They make you sign a statement at the start of each year that says you wont cheat. The parents are also supposed to check to make sure no one cheats. They also call us periodically and quiz us on the phone to make sure we’re doing the work. I guess they could tell if someone is getting questions wrong in online lessons but get 100s on the test. But otherwise, I can’t figure out how they would catch anyone. I just always assumed the people who are lazy enough to cheat are also lazy enough to not cover it up well enough, lol.</p>

<p>I get “sick” sometimes.</p>
