Get 8 hours of sleep. Eat protein (i.e. a tofu shake or eggs) not carbs for breakfast--absolutely no sugar--sugar makes you sleepy--and maybe chew on a mint leaf.

Anything that will keep you awake. Doodle if you need to, sometimes people doodle and then are able to stay more focused. Take notes even if you won't use them later, it should help you focus on what the teacher is saying. Anything with a mint flavor (peppermint is best) is supposed to be stimulating so gum or hard candies might help. If it's early in the mornign make sure to eat breakfast. If it's after lunch try to stay away from fatty foods and lots of carbs, those will make you more sleepy. Have something that you can fidget with quietly in your hands that wouldn't be distracting to your teacher or your classmates. If you sit in the back talk to the teacher and try to move towards the front so you will feel more engaged, if you don't have assigned seats try a different spot every few classes to change things up. Where layerd clothing, sometimes if you are too warm or cold you will get sleepy or shut down.
Hope that helps.

Argue to yourself that school is not as boring as you probably think it is, and sleep through the night. I know that's dull, but that's the only way. If it's a specific class, try this: Remember the Silence Game, for rowdy kids where they compete to see who can be the quietest? Compete with yourself or someone else to see if you can beat your own records for being awake in class. Or take many, many notes so you have to keep writing and can't nod off.
Good luck to ya!

Borrow a friend of yours' McDonald's uniform, and take a picture of yourself behind the counter. Have another friend who is a wizard with digital images age your picture so you look fifty years old in it. Look at that when you get bored in class.

It helps if you get enough sleep. If you can't, drink a cup of coffee right before going to class.
