That you're sick.  And if you need a good way to throw up, take a little bit of Carmex (that lip balm stuff) and "accidentally" swallow some.  30 minutes later you'll have the vomit to prove the sickness.\n\nOther than that, the only real good excuse is family emergency.

Don't miss class, whatever you do. Take notes DURING class, and look at them after class. Make study guides for yourself before each test. (This will help you to remember the material better than just reading it)\n\nAnd do every assignment. Don't be afraid to ask your teacher for help.

ONLY if u do ALL of ur homeowork, project and thing like that, Get to class on time, make sure u don't do projects epesically big on on the last day brefore u turn it in. Make sure when u check out library book from the school that u turn it in on the due date. Then i think u will get good grades and do good in school w/o going on the restrction list for too many taries or over due library book,ect. MAke sure to ask question if u don't get something and definatley listen 2 all of ur teacher no matter how boring they can be. Make sure u know and understand ur homework before u leave that class. Don't be afraid to ask questions. Also, another important thig is study for your test in else u know the material really well that u don't need to study like sicence for example, if u have hw from that calss and u hab a test tomorrow after the hw is do then you could not study b/c u hab hw to help u review.

This depends on whether or not you are in a public or private school. Talk with your counselor about it. You will probably have to petition your school board AND complete all the required courses for the grade you would like to skip. If you are in gifted and talented education (TAG, GT, etc.) talk to your teacher also. You may need teachers to sponsor the skip, a psychological evaluation that states not only that you can handle the level of education but also the social change, letters from your parents/legal guardians, and even possibly an attorney. Your state/region may have laws about skipping as well (many states do).

While doing homework take frequent short span breaks.\nMay be you can take 5 min break every half an hour

Eat foods other than pizza as the greasy liquid substance on the pizza will rot your brains, thus keeping your mind thinking of only pizza all the time instead of your grades.\n\nBasically just concentrate and decide that you are going to push forward and really do good in your classes.  Do all of your homework and take the time to put effort and thought into it.  If you have a question that is a yes or no question, answer beyond that on your homework as this will help you to understand the class a lot better.  If you get something wrong on a test or homework, ask your teacher why it's wrong and have them explain their answer.  The more you understand your classes, the better chance of getting good grades.

To do anything in life, you need to be pushed. Period.\nThink about it. \n\nWhat makes you want to eat?\nA. Your hungry.\n\nWhat makes you want to brush your teeth?\nA. You don't want your breath to stink, makes them feel cleaner, your parents tell you to do it, etc.\n\nWhat makes you workout?\nA. You want to be healthy, and you want to look very good for people.\n\nSo the question is.\n\nWhat makes you do good in school?\nA. The answer is, you need something to push you, whether that be from a person, push in the form of motivation, or otherwise.\n\nSo, I suggest you take the time to think about what will happen if you fail.\n\nAllow me to help motivate you.\n\nI almost failed school. Do you have any idea what woulda happened if I did? MY WHOLE FAMILY WOULD BE DISSAPOINTED. There would be no graduation, which I'm betting alot of your family is looking forward to. If you don't pass, you are stuck in stupid school for ANOTHER WHOLE YEAR, SAME OLD STUPID KIDS, STUPID TEACHERS, STUPID SUBJECTS AND POINTLESS HOMEWORK, trust me, I've been there. DO WHATEVER YOU NEED TO DO TO PASS. It will hurt, yes, doing all that pointless studying, I know. But what happens if you don't graduate? What if that happens? Imagine that. I did. You know what conclusion I came to. I have to graduate. I cannot fail. I CANNOT LET THAT HAPPEN!!!!

Find a quiet place where there's no distractions: computers, TV, radio, etc. \nGet everything you need to finish your homework: books, rulers, paper, etc. It's easier to get distracted if you're getting up every now and then to get something.\nSet your mind to it.\nOh yeah, don't spend your time on Yahoo! Answers.

Pay attention in class. Jot down what you don't understand and ask them later if timer permits. Also, listen carefully if the teacher already answered one of your questions.

I used to be a straight A student last year. But I was a lazy straight A student and I crammed all the info in one day before the tests. I paid more attention in class and took more notes. I didn't procrastinate and I tried to do my work quietly in a room.\nBut this year, I do my work while watching television, I procrastinate and instead of trying to get homework done as asap, I save it til the morning or wait til homeroom to work on it. I don't take any notes in class and I'm still trying to cram everything into my head one day before the test except now it's harder to do so cause I have material to read. Now I have mostly B's and a C in analytical math.\nSo...in conclusion, work quietly, don't procrastinate, read everything and take notes... that should get you an A in your class. Make sure you understand what you're reading; don't just read it, understand it!\nIf you have the chance to do extra credit, take it! Don't try to bribe your teacher though. Good teachers like students who want to learn and will do extra credit to learn no matter how much points  the extra credit is worth. If you try to bribe your teacher, it might give them a bad impression. Don't cheat; if you get caught you might get kicked out and it will also give your teacher a bad impression of you. Participating more in class will give your teacher a good impression of you because it shows that you're willing to learn.

Let them know, in writing, that you are not dropping out.  It would be helpful to also doccument the reasons for your absences.  specifally request that they respond to you with the procedure for re-instatement.\n\nAddress this letter to the principal of your school.  If you get no answer within a reasonable time (say 2 weeks) , send a copy to the school board or board of education.  Make sure you keep a copy of the letter for your own records.

You have to remember, school comes first, and if you don't pass, you don't play.  I would suggest doing your homework as soon as you get home, and having free time later, whether it is to play basketball or do something else.  You have to stay focused on what is important.

stay at school. if you leave today, it'll just make it harder to come back tomorrow. if anyone comes up to you and says something, then make a joke about you falling...take it easy....more embarassing things will happen to you....trust me. i was a teenager once...just a few years ago.

Talk to the teachers about what you can do and do it well. Finish up all missed assignments and if possible do extra credit work. Good luck.
