do you skip school a lot?

[visibleghost]

not a lot. my school has a system that automatically alerts your parents if you are absent or late lmao. sometimes after i've been away from school because of therapy or somehing i will skip the next lesson because it will say in the system that i still am at therapy (they always write that i will be there for longer than i will be) so i can safely skip without anyone finding out B)

I hated missing class in HS. I probably stayed home like once a year when sick. In uni I skip once in a while... Not as much of a big deal to me.

 

[ams]

No. Once you're an adult and you have to pay like $10,000 a year for school out of your own pocket skipping becomes a pretty stupid idea.

I'm late to school really often. ;o;

I didn't skip school in high school apart from a few days, and I still don't skip school in college. Well. I don't skip at all now that I'm in a grad program, but there were certain classes I didn't mind taking a few days off from in undergrad, but it would still feel like I was missing a lot so I tried not to. I've always been pretty good when it comes to attendance.

 

[nintendofan85]

I never have.

 

[Chrystina]

back when I was in high school I skipped most of my junior year. then I just didn't go for my entire senior year lol.

I have yet to go to college - although since I'd be paying a TON for it I can imagine I would never skip.

I never just skipped school, though in middle school I would infrequently play sick. I never did once I got to high school. My friends were all there, I could get my homework done in class, listening to lessons made it so I never needed a textbook (other than for math) and it was nice getting a perfect attendance award. The only year I didn't get the award was in junior year because I got the flu. I had begged my parents to let me go to school but they stayed home to make sure I wouldn't get a ride to school with my friends.

I'd skip out during lunch period back when I was in middle school and high school so I could eat at my house. Otherwise... don't skip school kids.

Sometimes. I do somewhat care about my grades. As I am only in Year 10 (no idea what that is in America) I can't skip school without my parents knowing.

 

[graceroxx]

sometimes i wake up and have no energy whatsoever, so i consider faking sick.. but then i think of what i would miss that day and the late assignments that would result from it and that's what motivates me to go.
i only miss school if absolutely necessary. i stayed home on october 26 because i was sick, i missed half of december 16 due to a sore throat (i went in late because i was doing the swimming unit in gym and i really did not want to make that up) and i missed school on monday because i had to go to my grandpa's funeral.
2 and a half days isn't too bad in my opinion

There's a difference between being immature and being fun and easy-going. Plenty of adults on here are nice and kind without the use of emoticons and spamming pointless **** about grapefruits.

Uhhhhh Have you not seen your post history.

 

[Mariah]

Uhhhhh Have you not seen your post history.

I don't see how that's relevant to the fact that there are nice adults on here.

 

[Rasha]

rarely, or let's say only when I got really sick. our school was extremely strict and we would be given hell not only if we skipped a day but also if we forgert to bring anything like the ****ing pen for example.

 

[Hopeless Opus]

No, I've never skipped. Usually I stay home when I'm really sick, that's it.

 

[Llust]

no. if your excuse for skipping school is just because you don't want to attend class, then that's pretty pathetic and stupid imo. i've never skipped and i dont see why i should be effort into it and risking getting caught and getting my ass whooped. missing just one days worth of notes and labs can set you back by a lot. having to study new content on your own as opposed to actually being there in class isn't worth it

edit // i forgot about mental illnesses. i'd say those are an acceptation, but i mean like if you're simply lazy and you dont necessarily have any issues going on and just want to have a good time while classes are ongoing, then that's what my post applies to

 

[Soigne]

I don't necessarily skip school entirely, but I leave early a lot. After lunch, I only have one class that isn't study hall and I don't care for it so I leave at 11:30 at least 3 times a month just for the heck of it.

 

[Hermione Granger]

i only ever skip if i know i have homework i haven't done. and i try to do my homework on time most of the time so i don't skip a lot. skipping in itself, for the purpose of just not wanting to go to school without a reason or to just be edgy is stupid

also @OP, i dont know how it works where you live, but did you ever think to yourself your parents might get tried for truancy at the time because of your frequent skipping?

 

[creamyy]

I feel like as of lately I really do miss a lot of school. I've only been one day this week

 

[riummi]

nope my parents wont allow it unless im dying :^ )
plus i dont dare to sneak out because my teachers keep attendance and will call the office if im not there >:c
plus skipping just makes things harder on me since i have to find out what happened and the hw thats due
