My school has a no tolerance policy for... everything. If you're caught skipping you get 3 detentions for each class you skip plus possible loss of senior privileges.

No, I dont skip, one reason is because I have no reason to skip, another reason being that if I skip even one classs, All my teachers (all 7 of them) would call home saying "Did you know your child didnt show up in class today?" Imagine, getting that message 7 TIMES!

Yeah I skipped a lot in grade 9 and then I got better until grade 11. In grade 11 I skipped most of the year and ended up failing 5 of my classes.

No. They're pretty strict about it at my school. If you get caught at all outside of a classroom without an excuse and some proof, you automatically get suspended, and in any case, if a teacher reports you as absent or missing, the school contacts your parents about it. The school is crawling with security staff, so getting caught isn't hard at all. I know quite a few people who have done it at least once, but I don't know anyone who's done it without getting caught.

I didn't in HS or my first year in college, but after that, my roommate's bad habit rubbed off on me.

The closest thing I've done to skipping is just staying home with my parents permission. Which actually happens quite a bit.

I dont plan on anytime soon but im just a freshman. Anyway, if you get caught you will get suspended, lose credit for everything you did during that class and some other stuff so its not really worth it.

I skipped one. Me and two mates had to do filming for an assignment in year 10, we went up the back hill and "lost track of time" for a couple of hours. Our IT teacher covered for us :P

As for the last two school years, there really was no need to skip as all of my classes were enjoyable. Also, if anyone skipped a full day, the school always rang up the parents.

I hatted high school and generally skipped one class a day my junior and senior year. I even dropped out for a short time and got kicked out with a few months left my senior year. they let me come back and i graduated still. I took a few years off and worked my ass off then went to college and now I never miss a class, have been on the deans list almost every semester, and should easially graduate with honors. I would havea 4.0 if I wouldnt have to do foreign language classes. What a difference it makes when you decide to pull your head out of your butt and realize that there is more to life than partying.

My High School locked down on that kind of stuff, so no, I never missed one. That carried on to college too so far, so my school did a good job instilling that into our minds, I guess.

Not too much. I did skip sometimes during my Senior year if I knew I was going to be late. My precalculus teacher would make me stay after class for the first two times, then detention for the next times if I arrived late. I just decided I would rather miss a whole day then worry about staying after tbh.

My senior year, I went to class maybe half the time; I had a vast collection of passes and excuses that I used to great effect. In addition to making several campus visits my senior year, I made up some fake ones and would hang out with friends who were just doing plain old truancy.xaos
Good times.

I still do.

Sometimes I skip first period if I'm running a little bit too late and there are only 20 mins left. I chill around, drink some water, take a pee, play with my iPod. I did it a lot in middle school but why does that matter, it's middle school lol do what ever you want.

I only spend 3 out of the 6 hours we have of school in actual class. Its cool, because Im not really skipping anything because I have awesomely placed free periods. I still skip on a regular basis though to get a full day off of school.

I only go to maths classes to sit tests, but am still around 4th or 5th in the school for mathematics. What a joke attending class is.

I have pretended to be sick to not go to school. Other than that, not really. I really didn't have no where to go... they have people patrolling the hallways and video cameras all over the place like it is the freaking White House. Now, college is a different story. :P

Skipping class was part of the curriculum at my high school:lol: Inner city schools for the loss. I skipped just about every class I had my senior year and still passed, I still remember graduation, I was getting my diploma and my english teacher came to me and shook my hand. He said, "congrats ____." Mind you I had only been to his class about 20 times out of the year and I didnt even do the final project for the class (which was going to be our Finals grade). all in all I passed the class with a B- :P.

You do know that you will regret it eventually right? For all you know, they could see how many times you have skipped and just not take you in.
