    Stay away from kids who look sick or ill. If you do have to touch a sick kid or be near them, immediately wash your hands afterwards. Don't touch your face or anyone else until you wash your hands.

    Exercise and eat healthily. This will help you not become sick and not miss school. You should exercise for 30 minutes a day and drink 6-8 glasses of water a day. Eat healthy foods and only eat a small serving of sweets once a week.

Method 2 of 2: Avoiding Other Absences

  1. 1
    Don't skip school with the so-called "cool kids." They are just the distractions to you and your attendance record. Imagine if you did skip school with the "cool kids"; if it became a regular thing, it's likely it would affect your graduation, college attendance, and path in life, and you'd end up regretting it
  2. 2
    Try to avoid having dentist/doctor appointments in the middle of the school day. In some school districts, if you leave school in the middle of the day, it still marks absent on your report card. Try to schedule your appointments after school instead.
