When I was in high school, my art teacher actually gave us a two-three day assignment to make war protest signs and have a protest right off the school property. I got a zero for three days, for I was the only one for the war. BUT, if that is what you choose, the school can not punish you for skipping to protest. They didn't do crap to the teacher for failing me, and they allow Hispanic children to skip to protest, so why the hell not? go for it if that is what you want to do.

If you truly, truly believe in the reason for protesting, and it's important to you, then yes. But be prepared for the consequences of skipping school.

If you belive in what you are protesting for - ask yourself a few questions-
1. Is it for a good reson
2. Is it going to hurt anyone
3. Are you doing it just because everyone else is
4. Is it going to help
5. Is there any other way you can get them to listen
If you can answer these and get the right answers go for it - if not or you don't know then don't do it

Who benefits? YOU DO! Who gets hurt: clue - not the school.
What's it cost: ZIPPO. What significant influence does a freebie protest have: NADDA.
If you want to protest: PAY FOR IT! Get to school at 5 am and scare the security guard by staying till 11 p.m. Lay down on the cold hard steps before and after school.

If you are willing to face the consequences of skipping class, & you feel strongly enough about what you are protesting to face those consequences, go ahead.
But don't skip class, then try to claim "freedom of speech" as why you shouldn't get punished.

It better be a really good reason. If you're doing so, make it a point that you are skipping class. Don't try to be sneaky about it, if it makes any sense.
Get others to do it with you, so that you aren't alone. There is strength in numbers!

That is NOT the way to protest. However, if you choose to do so, then accept whatever penalty is given to you by the school and don't complain about it because you know better.
Chow!!

As long as you have thought about and are prepared to live with the consequences of your actions and you believe in what you are protesting....Go for it

I'd protest another way, because you're going to get marked truant, and then you're going to get in trouble, and then that's going to suck. I think you should make buttons that say slogans. And give them to everyone. And make posters and stick them to stuff, but like, don't let anyone know it was you.
