do you skip school a lot?

[Captain Crazy Chicken]

I used to.

USED TO.

Nowadays, some unexplained force from beyond says nobody in the world can skip school unless they did a bad thing. And Japan forces kids to go on Saturday, too!

 

[Fizzii]

I have a pretty good attendance (as shown)

 

[BungoTheElf]

No wayyyyy

I don't skip ever intentionally, I can't really think if I've skipped classes at all honestly (besides being sick or something) and I don't think we're counting excused absenses and events lol

 

[Cosmic Gerbil]

Yeah, I skipped it all. Went once when I was 5, didn't like it and never went again. My family were totally cool about it.

Spoiler

I was home schooled.

I attended college though, which was really good. The only time I didn't go there was when my car broke down and I couldn't get. (My college was about 30 miles from where I lived and public transport was too expensive).

As an art major I can't miss much days of college even if I'm sick. For all art classes at my university, if you have more than 3 absences, then 10% of your entire grade will be deducted lol...

 

[LilyACNL]

Nah, I skip school more than I should but not all the time. I'm late a lot though cause I have troubles getting up or getting ready for bed. Haha.

 

[jasond3]

I never skip school unless something happened at home or I'm sick, I'm trying to get good grades because if I do then more presents for me! Grade 8 at my school is kinda hard sometimes and even some teachers are mean

Do you draw digitally? And anime characters too? I draw anime but I suck when it comes to digital art

Yep, I draw digitally~ Although I haven't been able to really draw digitally for my classes yet ;v;

I skipped school on and off throughout my life, I did it just enough to not get in trouble though. In middle school I would skip Wednesdays by faking sickness which i was really good at, Wednesdays were these in between days where we had really short times in each class so not much was done those days anyways so it wasn't a big deal, and I would bring that up to my mom I'd be like "I don't feel good, I got hot poops and it's Wednesday so I mean it's not like I'd miss anything..." so she'd agree, and I was like an ace at faking sick like I said. XD I stopped for a while in high school until my mom started going out of town on thrusdays and not coming home until sundays, so I started "missing the bus" or getting sick and my mom wouldn't know until the school called her to ask why i wasn't in and then she'd call me at home and I'd be like "Oh shoot I didn't set the alarm..." or something it was great, I skipped quite a bit but not enough to get in trouble, they were like my "personal" days because I would usually do it when I was really depressed. :/

 

[glow]

yup kill me

 

[piichinu]

no, you get caught within the first 30 minutes of school + could never fake sick because my parents are doctors
now i only skip it if im like suicidal and my mom lets me only then

 

[Bubblebeam]

It's been like 10 years since I was in school (holy cow...) but when I was you couldn't bunk off because the damned reception would call anyone not marked in attendance at morning registration, and in my final years they got incredibly strict even with the number of sick days you could have a year (as if you can actually help getting sick -.-). My mum used to be more lenient about making out I was sick until that, then she had to start making me go even during some very rough colds otherwise they got on her back about it, even sending letters.

I'm talking about my schools in the U.K. 10 years ago though, so maybe things have changed.

 

[Naekoya]

I use to skip a lot during my Jr/Sr years of Highschool.. the school didn't really do much nor called up my parents or anything like that.. like a boss but yeah only reason why is because I already had enough credit in order to graduate or simply the teacher I had was pretty laid back and chill c:
other times I would just attend half the day and leave during lunchtime lol.
ahh those were the days ~

 

[AquaStrudel]

I hate missing a day of school. I have to do make-up work, homework that I missed and ugh.

 

[DJStarstryker]

No, but the public school system that my schools were in had a fairly small limit of number of days you could miss or they would make you repeat a grade. Also, I had to ride the school bus to school until I got my license right before senior year, and there was nothing interesting around the school to do/see.

The only times I missed any school generally was dental related (I had braces in middle and part of high school) and that time I got chicken pox in middle school thanks to my brothers.

 

[Alex518]

sometimes but my mom knows. like she just calls me out of school and says im sick. its not really "skipping" per se but its lying lol i can't do it often since you can only have 20 absenses throughout the year (if you go over it you have to retake all your classes)

 

[KiraNinja]

I remember when I was a kid, last few weeks of high school I skipped most of my lessons, I was a nobody and the teachers didn't even know I existed- who knew being invisible would pay off?

 

[Celestefey]

I skipped school quite a lot earlier on in the school year and I still did even a few months ago. It was mostly just either not showing up to lessons or not coming in for half of the day or whatever. I said I had doctors appointments and counseling appointments - and I have had them, sometimes... My school have never showed any sort of worry and they never really chase me up on my absences even though they're pretty strict on attendance. I'm not failing so w/e. I mostly just didn't bother to show up because I was really demotivated and depressed.

 

[gh0st]

I had over 60 absences the last day of high school for my senior year, but they let me graduate because I had all A's.

;w;

 

[Swiftstream]

Never. Like if I ever miss a day of school I end up with a stack of work...
The only time I skip school is during assemblies. Also my highschool takes attendance every period and calls your parents if they find you missing.
