Expository essay: What are the consequences of skipping class?



Skipping class is not a strange word to many students. There are an amount of students who simply feel fun to skip class. Being in the list of absent students seems to make them happy for no specific reason. They feel happy and they do not have any feelings of insecurities of skipping classes. Even though there were many ways and methods which were being implemented by the government and school authorities, the amounts of students skipping classes still has not decreased. Students who skipped classes could usually be seen at the shopping malls or video games shops. Some of them just spend time sleeping at home. They are not the least bit worried of their future. This is because the consequence of skipping classes had not cross their mind. 

  There are several consequences which are caused by skipping class. By skipping class, students are actually wasting the amount of money spent on their education. Money is something important and education is something even more important than that. It is of outmost pity that students are unable to prioritize both of these important things. Parents are more than willing to pay for their children’s education but it is just being thrown away by students just like that does not even matter to them. The money wasted could have been precious to many little kids who are suffering from poverty and living in an unhealthy environment. Students should spend a little time thinking of the value of money and how they just ignore it. Parents who work hard has a very important reason which is to educate their children but their children treat money as if it is something worthless.

  In addition, education symbolizes a way of life. This is because the way an educated person behaves and lives is different compared to an uneducated person. Their way of thinking also differs from each other as they inherit different values. To be exact, students who skip class are the candidates to become an uneducated person in life an eventually will inherit bad values and will be viewed as people who does not contribute anything to the society. Instead, these types of people will be a barrier for the country to develop successfully. Therefore, students who skip classes should take notice of this and change their habits before things take turn for the worst. 

  Moreover, students who skip classes will fall behind in their studies. They will be unable to catch up with their classmates as their knowledge is limited due to continuous absence. Every sentence is important in a class and student who misses class will be at a great loss as what had been lost could not be retrieved again. Normally, students just skip classes as they wish and only attend classes when there is pop quiz going on. There were mistaken by doing this as they are in shortage of the knowledge which they had lost by skipping classes. This will result in the students copying other’s answers in exams. Without knowledge, students are unable to survive in this constantly developing world. They will face countless of hardships as a result of skipping classes. 

  On the other hand, students who skip classes will also lack friends. This is because the time which they spend at school is less compared to students who always attend classes without fail. This will result in the loneliness of the students who skips classes. They will most potentially be ignored in class. For instance, during a group assignment, no one will be happy to be in the same group with them as they will be in the fear of losing their own marks. Therefore, the marks of the students who skip classes will also be affected.

  All in all, skipping classes is something which is extremely worthless and will only result in one’s downfall. This shows that skipping classes is something which will bring disadvantages to the doer. Therefore, students should stop skipping classes before it is too late as chances only come knocking at our door once.
