Thought this would be a good topic.

One time in Ninth Grade, I managed to trick a Biology teacher into thinking I was supposed to be in her class. I heard nasty stories about the Biology teacher I was assigned to, so I thought that I would try something that had never successfully been attempted at my school. She kept looking for my name on the role, but never found it. Needless to say, this took some MAJOR planning.

It actually worked...for six weeks.

After the first grades went out for the year, I was immediately called into the Principal's office. There, I saw BOTH of the Biology teachers sitting there with dumbfounded looks on their faces. The nasty teacher said, "I was wondering why I kept calling your name, and you were never there!" Of course, I had the look of a confused angel the entire time. "I honestly thought that I was supposed to be in Mrs. Robinson's class," I said. Not my best performance, but adequate enough for a situation like this one. The Principal had the look of someone who was saying "riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight" in his mind the entire time. So, basically, I had to go to the assigned teacher's class. For some reason, they decided to let my work that I did in the other class transition to the nasty one's class, so all was well (I had a 96, it better damn well had transfered). Everyone that was in on it thought it was fucking hilarious! By all definitions, relatively tame story I know. I might share some interesting ones that I know about from my school...if this topic goes well enough.

So, I know that GAF has some evil genius masterminds that are regular posters here. Got any interesting stories to share with the rest of the class?
 
Back when I was in 7th grade I had an..interesting temperament. Very little things could completely set me off. One time during lunch I was sitting at a table with a few of my friends that happened to be right next to the table the teachers sat at. I can't recall exactly what it was, but something inspired me to slam my fist into my milk as hard as I could, splattering it all over the ceiling and knocking my other food everywhere, including onto the teacher's table.

All that happened was I got sent to the guidance counselor, I don't think my parents were even notified.
 
I got along with everyone, jocks, burnouts, brains, etc. Anyway I remember this librarian that gave everyone a hard time just adored me. She gave me a laminated hall pass my junior year, I never returned it and by god I used that. I remember when Final Fantasy 2(4) came out for snes, I drove 30mins to pick it up and then back, missed a class and half and just used the pass saying I was in library the whole time. :lol Wanted to go home for an hour, no problem! Wanted check on my friends in another class, np!
Oh and sneaking out of the house twice a week, so easy, just climb out of the window well in the basement! So many crazy tales in the dark.
 
I got through all High School without barely open a single book except for preparing my hidden notes and stuff. The only class I couldn't do that was Philosophy, but that one class was quite interesting so I had no problems studying just for that. I also studied for the science class (physics and stuff) because it was pretty darn interesting.

I always got away with it because I was "popular" around the teachers because of being a nice student that never caused troubles nor anything, so they never suspected I was cheating on the tests.
 
I was a master at the pencil drop/pantie peek maneuver. Only got caught once and her only reaction was rewarding me with a big smile and a better look.
 
I read absolutely no assigned books during High School, and relied completely on Cliff Notes and that Pink Monkey site. Probably not a unique experience, but I don't know how I bullshitted my way around more obscure books that didn't have any cliff notes.

Also I cheated in a big way on my programming class final exam. What do you expect though when you tell us our last assignment is basically the final exam, and then you sit us in front of computers connected to the internet without supervising us?
 
I didn't go the last semester of school yet I still graduated year 12. I somehow slipped through the cracks of attendance.

Went to english class high all the time, noone ever picked up.
 
I made a deal with my Chemistry teacher that I just wouldn't go to his class and disrupt it if he didn't report me for skipping class. I had a 12 (out of 100) in his class, so my changes of passing were pretty slim anyway.

I actually got away with plenty of shit now that I think about it, but to balance it out, I also got in trouble for shit I didn't do a couple of times too. I got expelled for "hacking" the school network because I figured out that each teacher had a share on the network that could be accessed through SMB by simply typing \\teachersname. I didn't do anything with the contents of the directory, but that was considered hacking. I ended up getting the expulsion overturned because my dad helped me prove that the network administrator was basically a moron that didn't feel the need to turn on permissions for any of the shares. I did get kicked out of that class though (it was a c++ class) and had to take a different elective. The only one available was autobody repair IV, and I had never taken autobody repair I, II, or III. I, as expected, didn't know what the fuck I was doing, so the teacher of the class made a deal with me that he'd give me a B if I made sure nobody stole any of the tools.
 
Shit my pants in Primary School and nobody caught on...

...I hope.
 
Skipped school a few times but was only punished for one count. Even then, I wasn't severely punished, because the second I walked into the APs office, I noticed a Monet poster on the wall and pointed it out. We started talking about art and stuff and she eventually let me go with a lighter 'sentence.'
 
I basically copied every single exam, assignment, classwork imaginable. Never been caught. My favourite trick was forcing the nerd of the year to roll his draft into a ball and trash it, after a coupla minutes I'd get up, go there and pretend to sharpen my pencil, then OOPS my sharpener fell inside the can!

One day I was scared as hell to get a oral exam and jumped two floors down the window, friends catapulted my bag out of the iron gate. THEY WOULD NEVER HAVE ME
 
I also ordered pizza to a public speaking class at least once a week. The delivery driver would bring it to the window of the class and hand it to me. My teacher didn't really care as long as we gave her a slice.
 
I was in grade 9, fireshmen highschool... I saw kids making out lying down on the ground in the narrow hallways... this was a catholic school. Quite the sight I tell you hwut.
 
I got drunk at school at least twice. My classmates figured it out quickly but none of the teachers noticed.

A few months after my graduation at highschool, I walked into a class and asked a friend (who had to repeat his year) to come with me. The teacher actually believed I worked for the school.

Graduation: the school had decided to organise the graduation party in the school building for the first time ever. Usually they organise it somewhere else. Me and some friends pissed on one of the teacher's doors. Also some stuff got stolen that night. Suffice to say no more graduation parties in the school building.

Switched a school employee's computer's mouse and keyboard wires. Took 10 minutes for the IT guy to figure out. Even then it didn't work, so I must have broken it :lol

I got permission to stay home for a whole week because my wisdom had been pulled (monday). I was ready for school by tuesday, stayed home anyway. We had a school trip to Ypres that thursday and I participated. Next day there were two tests, didn't feel like it and didn't go. No one even noticed and I wasn't billed for the school trip. Free trip to Ypres :D
 
I could spend the next two hours telling stories about how much fucking plagiarism I got away with/got busted for in high school and college. It was absolutely pathetic. I'm pretty sure I have posted about here in the past though, so I'm not going to bother. :lol

I guess to contribute something: I ditched a final my junior year of high school, made up some story in an email later in the day, and never had to retake it.

I wore a leg brace and crutches to an Astronomy final in college so I could guilt trip the teacher into letting me retake it if I did poorly. The smart guy called me out on it and said something along the lines "I hate fucking kids like you." Yes, he said "fuck." I still got a B though because I didn't know the class was graded on a curve, hehe.

I had high-up connections in student services and dropped multiple classes I was failing during the last week of semesters.

Long story short, I was fucking turd who should have been shot from about 1995-2001.
 
In high school, I managed to convince my journalism teacher that I turned in an assignment that I didn't actually do. She even gave me a grade on it. :lol
 
Here's a short list of things I got away with in High School. Take note that I was in tech theater and we were known as some of the more wild ones.

1) Got a copy of my drama director's key made so we had 24/7 access to the school.
2) My sophomore year, snuck in on the weekend with my girlfriend at the time and got head in the hall.
3) Got to 2nd base in the light booth.. Would have gone all the way if the damn janitors hadn't come into the auditorium.
4) Never did a single piece of homework, but aced all my tests. Looking back now, I would have been in the top 10% easily if I had tried. =(
5) Constantly went into the band hall and rearranged all their instruments for the hell of it. (Us theater people always feuded with those band assholes)
6) I wrote essays for the dumbass gang banger kids who didn't want to do their work and sold them for $20 a pop.
7) Since I was one of the first people with a DVD burner and cable internet, I downloaded, burnt, and sold DVD's of porn to people for $10 a disc. Jesus, I made so much money off of that.

Thats about all I can think of at the moment. God, I never realized how awesome high school was for me.
 
Back in high school me and 3 other kids decided to get high before going to class. When we were in class one of the 3 decided to do weird shit like dancing and singing. We were all siting right next to eachother. The teacher brought in the principal and he took him to his office. In his office he asked the boy to tell on who he got it from and who else is smoking so he wouldn't get kicked outta school. He somehow told on the rest but didn't include me.

Needless to say the principal kicked out him and the rest. :lol
 
some Guy assaulted me outside a classroom , so i hit him back loads of times then he sorta nelt down so i kicked him in the face

so much for self defence i got exluded for it
 
A teacher called me stupid and another teacher rushed to my defence, they started having a full blown argument in the hallway.

Damn, realisation moment just now, that teacher who defended me really believed in me. woah.

A rare thing to see in public educators these days.
 
One time me, my girlfriend and my friend all played hookie for one whole school day. I tricked my parents into thinking I was actually sick, my sister knew I wasn't and she always hates me for it. I then got my friend Cameron to come pick me up and we both tricked the principal in thinking that my girlfriend's grandmother died so we went and picked her up in my friend's dads Ferrari. For the whole day we saw a Cubs game, we went to a fancy lunch (we tricked the maitre de into thinking we were someone else, some king of some sorts) we went to museums and I almost got caught by my father, it was a close one. Then it starting getting crazy, I played a big part in parade that was going on and STILL didn't get caught. After we were done on the drive home I noticed the car had more mileage on it than it should and since it was my friend's dads car, he started to freak out, as he usually is prone to do. When we got back to his house, to make a long story short, I failed at backing the mileage to the exact point it should be and totaled the car in his back yard, but he didn't care. I then raced home through the seamless backyards and as soon as I got home I plopped back into bed just as my parents swung open the door to make it seem like I was there all day. It was crazy.
 
First 10 years in school i never made any homwork. Never.

Also i stole quite a few stories from games and got pretty good grades for them :lol
 
Wasn't me but there was this one kid that decided to fake a stutter when we had a substitute. Pretty sure she knew it was bullshit but there's no way you can call someone out on that. :lol

I think the worst was that a friend and I put laxatives in a substitute teacher's coffee. Luckily after some apologies a few days later, he let it go.

I'd never been so freakin scared at what I had done.
 
I have a similar story to the OP.. I failed a class and the next year had to take another.. so I took English.. two of my best friends were in one class but I was assigned to the other. I went to their class for 2 weeks until I got called in by the head of english and he went apeshit at me, like a father would after finding out you've totalled his car or something. Anyway it didnt stop me and the next day I went to the wrong class again.. in the end they just moved me over because it was easier.. :lol
 
My entire senior year of high school, I barely attended any classes. I was the lead in a school play of "12 Angry Men" and would often use rehearsal as an excuse to get out of classes. Instead of class, I would hang out in the auditorium and climb into the rafters above the stage to make out with stoner chicks. I'd usually meet these girls in music class. Most of my day, I was allowed by the old blues musician who ran Chorus class, to play his baby grand piano while he did paper work and stuff. In exchange, he asked me to jump in on baritone now and then during one of his classes.

Honestly I don't know why the school staff was so apathetic about my obvious lack of caring for my schedule. I was like a ghost walking the halls even though other kids got in trouble. I remember walking into a Jewelry making class, firing up a burner and melting some copper rings together for fun in the back of the class. The teacher was taking attendance and noticed another kid using a burner like I was and yelled at him...but allowed me to continue working.

Good times.
 
Got away with calling one of my teachers in 7th or 8th grade a bitch (she was pretty young too) because she gave me an F on an assignment we were working on for a ridiculous reason. We had to write a square diagram on shakespeare or something with the right info, and I did it just right (perfectly actually) except it wasn't in a square/rectangle but in a pyramid. Son of a bitch gave me an F.

She said it was because I didn't follow the rules, it's a fucking shape! I had all the info right on and wrote it well, but instead of an A+ it was an F, which ruined my report card that month as well...

After arguing about it in the middle of class and owning her logic, she yelled to get out of the room, I remember saying 'gladly..' and then quietly mumbling 'bitch' to myself, but apparently everyone heard since the class broke out in laughter. Whoops!
 
Disclaimer: I am, and always will be, an annoying goodie-two-shoes geek. I myself never did anything awesome. But...

Year 7 (age 11-12) Latin. We had a new teacher, ex-pupil of the school, and completely incapable of controlling anyone (he also taught us for History - he once gave me detention for not printing off a map and sticking it in my exercise book, I printed it off and stuck it over the top of where he'd written the detention request and he forgot about it...).

One lesson, one guy pretended he had a music lesson so wouldn't be in the class. Instead, he took a plastic mask of Homer (legendary Greek poet) from the back of the classroom and put it on. He spent the whole lesson wearing it. He wouldn't respond to any questions because, obviously, he only spoke ancient Greek (and didn't understand the bad accent our teacher used.) No-one gave up his identity for the whole 40 minute lesson, and the teacher never worked out who he was. Pretty tame I guess but enjoyably surreal.

Only other one was end of the school year when I was 17 - we turned the music department into a crime scene with a dummy hanging from the rafters, crime scene tape, fake chalk outlines etc. We didn't realise the local primary school was coming in for an end of year concert that day...

Man, I loved my senior year in high school.
 
The hall pass system is totally broken in high school, and we learned that early. There was this one year where I had to take chorus. I'm not opposed to chorus, but the teacher barely got anything done because everyone didn't give a shit. A friend and I would basically see ourselves out whenever we felt like it and hang out wherever for the period. Skipped half of the class nearly everyday for the whole year and got As.

We would also organize really elaborate cheating methods. The plans always broke down whenever more people tried to get in on it.
 
After 7th grade I became very shy and always hid in the back of the class. I used this to my advantage to sit by doors and could sneak out nearly everytime. I never brought attention to myself at anytime so teachers never even knew I was gone. Soon as role was done I was gone. Still A'd the classes too.
 
In middle school we would skip to whichever computer lab wasn't being used and totally look at porn. Porn was so much different back then, it was like actually going to the site was more exciting than the actual porn.

Nope, nothing really changed. :lol It actually has gotten worse since you had to find a proxy website that still works, which usually only lasts a week or so before they block it.
 
In second grade, we were doing some kind of activity in a circle, and I was next to the teacher. She told us to get out a different book, and I intended to say "Oh phooey!" (yeah, I know, I was seven) and instead dropped "Oh, fuck!" My school (Catholic grade school) gave out these blue disciplinary notices your parents had to sign, and that was first of quite a few during a grade school. My parents kinda laughed that one off, thankfully.

A couple years later, we were out at recess, playing four square, and another kid in my class got me out. He stood there laughing, and the ball was bouncing directly between us, one of those vinyl-plastic gym balls about the size of a soccer ball. Without thinking, and pissed as hell at the perceived humiliation, I kicked the ball as hard as I could at him. It hit him on the side of the head and zoomed into the distance. I told him "Isn't so funny now, is it?" as the monitoring teacher ran up to send me off to the principal's office for another disciplinary notice.

My only trouble during a hellish four years in high school came thanks to the computer lab, which, in my sophomore year of 1986, was running an old shitty mainframe system with whatever programs we could write or were on there. Anyway, me and two other guys were basically using them to write lists of our classmates and teachers that we hated and wrote some pithy, derogatory comment about each. One of the other guys moronically decided to print one of these out, so of course it got out and people saw it. So we're in there frantically trying to get these ancient computers to delete these files, and being surrounded by livid classmates who were on the list. The best moment out of that came when one guy, a dimwit jock who we described as a blockhead, pointed to his head and exclaimed "Does my head look square to you??" I got suspended two days for that one, and one of the other guys got expelled, so I got off easy.
 
One time i didn't do an assignment and once everyone had handed their assignments in I went up to the teacher and told her that I had forgotten to put my name on the paper. I grabbed the paper of some dude who I didn't like, cut off his name at the top, put my own name on his work and handed it in. Highest mark I got in that class. :)

In home economics class we were cooking ginger bread men and I decided to use peanuts to give my man a real manly appearance. Teacher didn't like it and isolated me for the remainder of class. :(
 
When I was in 8th grade I hated my algebra class so I decided to stop doing work, paying attention, and basically earning my title of class clown.

Eventually my teacher started wanting my parents to sign my homework and quizes so they'd know how bad my grades were getting.

One day decided to forge my moms signature on a particularly bad quiz. The exact same day that I turned in the "signed" quiz my mom decides to show up at school, while I was sitting in algebra to tell me something (don't remember what it was).

So my teacher decides to ask my mom how she felt about my grades and attitude in general in front of the class...needless to say she gave me the look and I got two ass woopins that night, and was moved out of my room, denied access to my super nintendo and genesis for the rest of the school year and summer AND clowned by everybody in class for gettin caught! Plus I had to make up all the work I fucked up in class.
 
In seventh grade my best friend and I decided to play a little prank. We bought a bunch of those little debbie brownies at lunch and pocketed them. We set a time to take a bathroom break during our next class and met in the bathroom with our brownies. We then proceeded to chew the brownies into a paste that looked like soft poop w/poorly digested nuts scattered throughout the poo. Then, we smeared the poo brownies ALL over the bathroom; toilet seats, stall doors, walls, floor, urinals, light fixtures, paper towel dispenser and even the door handle.

We were pretty efficient, didn't take more than 5 minutes. We knew that our teachers would get suspicious if we were gone very long.

After that period ended we both met up outside of the crime scene and saw that some kid a grade lower than us ended up going into the restroom right after we finished and wasn't able to leave as their was poo brownie all over the door handle and the paper towel dispenser, LOL. We saw the janitor going in and out wearing one of the surgical masks and some big yellow rubber gloves.

I bet they thought one of the special ed kids got out of his class and made the mess.
 
I believe that the purpose of Driver's Ed was to allow kids to fill their quota of goofing off.

I mean, seriously. Thinking back, I swear that we pretty much just did whatever the hell we wanted in that class. The instructors were usually ALWAYS football coaches, they never really gave a shit, and then went along with whatever you wanted to do as long as it was legal! Countless times, we would just drive around aimlessly. The mall, the next town over, other high schools, just wherever! The coaches even let us drive to the local University to watch us crash and burn trying to pick up chicks! :lol

Easiest GPA-hike of a class I ever had.
 
Routinely got drunk in my art class by drinking vodka and Gatorade.

Came to school stoned quite a few times.

Once convinced the goody goodies of our class to hander over the writing and performance responsibilities of the annual class pep rally skit. Instead of making a short play about how we were going to defeat a neighboring school in football, they were taken on a spiritual odyssey containing no less than apes, Jim Morrison, Indians and a giant stick of salami. The spewing of fake blood went over great. As an added bonus one of the girls on student counsel proclaimed “You ruined my jr. year!”

Had a competition every year to see who could steal the most outlandish piece of school property. I thought I had my senior year won when I walked out with a 19 inch television. I wasn’t even close. Some other kid managed to take a massive projection screen from the auditorium. He had to have used power tools to remove it.
 
Well I cheated all teh time, but who didn't.
 
me and a friend hid a huge piece of chicken in my algebra teacher's room, as well as stuffed a bunch of other crap behind a cabinet. Stunk up the room for a while...

I got expelled for pretty much the same thing right at the end of junior year. My dad came in and talked it down to just a suspension for the rest of the year (not even a week).

I still remember when we wrote all the shit because it was interspersed with looking up Cannibal Corpse lyrics on a text-based unix browser.

The funniest part was I when I got called into the principal's office senior year for a reason I seriously didn't know. He plopped down more print outs of shit we wrote back then and accused me of hacking into the network to post them (my computer privileges were revoked). I just started laughing and said some dumb shit like "Look, I know I'm smart but I seriously have absolutely no idea how to do that."

Oh the joys of going to a math and science academy...

I went to class stoned once in my life and I regret it to this day. I can't remember what concept it was, but it was the day we were taught like the basic underlying structure of calculus. I was never able to understand anything in that class for the rest of the semester.
 
Squeezing some high school chicks tits (both of them simultaneously) when I was in the 5th grade. Hormones were raging that day.

My best friend from the United Arab Emirates turned all weird in the 7th grade. I then started to hang with a different bunch who in turn started picking on him. I eventually joined in, which resulted in a death threat and him bringing a butcher knife to school.

Guess who got suspended?

Looking back, I guess a Diplomat's son gets preferential treatment compared to the Black kid from Harlem.
 
I've never stolen anything in my life... except for this one time.

When I was in 6th grade I stole this boys Pokemon Red game. I REALLY hated this boy. Sometimes he would be really nice to me and other times he'd be mean as hell and even spat on me once.

So right before the last class of the day he left his GameBoy on his desk with Pokemon Red in the slot. He walked away from his desk and I walked up and pulled the cart out of the gameboy. I then went up to the teachers desk while she wasn't looking and slipped the game into the very back of her desk drawer. There was a little narrow slit the game fit into to fall into the very back of the drawer.

Anyways. The boy noticed the game was gone and the class stayed like 15 minutes after school "Nobody's leaving till someone comes forward with the game." sort of thing.

About 6 months pass and the kid has moved away and is no longer in the class. I go up to the teacher and ask for my Pokemon game that she took away. She used to take a lot of students shit so she went into her drawer and gave me the game back and thought nothing of it.
 
One time some girl was chasing me around a tree in 4th grade, and I turned around and slapped her pretty hard in the face. She went running to tell the teacher, and while she was doing that I scratched up the back of my neck with my fingernails and said she did it.

She got in trouble, and I got to get a free coke from the teachers lounge.
