We all know we aren't perfect, and knowing this you also probably know you're bound to miss school at some point. Missing school can be really nice at first, but soon the work just piles up and you're suddenly wishing that you didn't have that cold, or you weren't going on a camping trip with your family.

But, there's a way to miss school effectively! It is a bit easier if you know in advance that you won't be attending for a few days or so, but if you've unexpectedly caught a fever, there are tips for that too!

These are the tips you should follow/use if you KNOW you're going to miss school.

(like me, I'm on vacation)

Tip 1- Tell your teachers you'll be gone, and when you'll be gone. If you let them know you'll be gone Monday-Wednesday, or whenever, then they can give you a little snapshot of what you're missing, and maybe even give you your work prior to leaving.

Tip 2- Tell your friends you're leaving, and have with at least one person from each of your classes. This way your friends can give you copies of notes or tell you important information that the teacher had added to their lecture here or there. If your friend has the same teacher as you, but not the same hour as you, then this should work just as well. I have several friends who have the same teacher/the same class as me, but at different times in the day, and we all do the same work so it works out.

Tip 3- Write down in your planner/on a piece of paper (anywhere you can refer back to), what you're missing on each day. This is where you should write down both what your teacher told you, and what your friends told you. However, don't write down all the notes your friends told you, just the basic topic that you're missing and a side note saying something like "notes" or "worksheet" to indicate what exactly you missed.

Tip 4- Bring/pack what you need to get your work done. If you're staying home, then this part is already done! But if you're going somewhere, then to bring what you need to get everything efficiently done. Unless you really have something from every class, avoid bringing your whole backpack, this will make your life both easier and less stressful, as it'll seem you don't have much work to do!

Tip 5- Spread out your work time evenly. If you try to do everything in one day, you'll probably be missing whatever it is you had to miss school for! Plus, it'll be less stressful and more organized this way.

Now these are the tips you should follow/use if you weren't expecting to miss school and weren't able to tell anyone ahead of time.

(if you're sick, in that case have a nice drink, and relax)

Tip 1- Text all of your friends in the morning that you won't be at school today (give them the reason too if you're comfortable, as they'll probably ask because your friends worry about you!) This will let them know to tell your teachers you aren't here and that you'll need a copy of the notes/work.

Tip 2- Email all of your teachers that you won't be attending school for today (and continue to do this each day you're gone.) Even though you told your friends already, and they'll be telling the teachers, it's also nice for the teachers to hear directly from you. This way they can tell you exactly what you're doing, instead of the snapshot (that could've been wrong) that your friends gave you.

Tip 3- Have your friends text you at the end of the day (or between classes if they're allowed) what you've missed and have them text you pictures of the notes and such. Make sure to ask them any questions you have about the notes/work, because not everyone takes notes the same, so you may not understand what they meant by something, and you shouldn't guess because you won't get very high marks for that!

Tip 4- Try to get the most important or most heavily graded things done first. I know it can be a pain to do work when you're sick or on an unexpected visit to your grandparents house, but it'll be less stressful for you if you get some work done before you go back to school, where you'll get even more work to do. And if you do the most important things first, then they're out of the way and you won't have to worry about them!

Tip 5- Start to work on anything else that you're able to get done, once the most important stuff if out of the way. Trust me, it will be such a relief once you get everything done, especially if you do it all before you go back to school, because then you won't have a pile of work! But, please be careful, if you're terribly sick, then you don't have to take these last two tips into , you know what's best for you and listen to that!
