If you're school phones you're house with a auto message just say you were late for 1 class.

go, please go.
for all of us that can't go please do it.
it totally could end up being one of those things that you look back on when you're older and say 'shit, that was one of the best fucking days of my life, and even more so because I skipped school to do it.'

just go.
if you are worried about it, have your dad sign something that you wrote in pencil then erase what you wrote and write please excuse (your name) from school today, then give some doctor apointment reason and they wont call your house

I cant believe you are actually asking this question, lol. Write a doctor note and GTFO of school for a day.

Do it, don't let the expectations of other people limit what you want to do in life. Be your own person and live your own life.

My friend's parents wouldn't let him skip once... we called him out pretending to be his dad. And we were home in time for nothing to seem suspicious.

One day I went to 3D media class (attendance mandatory, I can be kicked out of my program if I miss 2 classes or more) on a beautiful sunny day and my prof. asked me why I was in class instead of skiing, because in 30 years, would I remember sitting in class more or having an epic day on the hill?

Agreed, 100%.

And if your dad gets mad, tell him an internet forum convinced you to do it. I'm sure he'll understand

always worth it!!!!

went skiing yesterday at my local hill castle mountain (hick ass hill in southern alberta but massive vertical) and it snowed non-stop all day racked up over 2 1/2 feet of fresh. stayed over and skipped school to ski today and slayed untracked lines all day.

claim i know but its definitly worth it to skip school do it man

school is for losers, you really shouldnt go

every time you skip something society deems important to go play in the snow, you are 100% gauranteed a dope ass time

Or like me, 23 and graduating in June. Ive skipped a lot of classes for powder days and I live in the PNW. So you can imagine how many classes I missed. Hell I told my teacher I had a funeral to go too and I missed a final just so I could hit the opening day of the backside at my mountain for epic pow all untouched.

Gotta do it man, I don't regret a thing.

same,  if the north was getting a dump, skip school drive up north stay for the weekend.  got some of my best days with my best friends.  cant beat that.  looking back to highschool (which was obviously a joke) it was probably one of the best decisions i made.
