The best school excuse ever

Check these out, too...

Last week, 5th grader Tyler Sullivan skipped school. He had a pretty good excuse, though: His Dad was introducing President Barack Obama during a visit to a factory in Minneapolis. So who signed his absence note? Why, Mr. President himself, of course!

 

Here’s the note. Props to Tyler for taking a pic and sharing it. We’re pretty sure this baby’s goin’ down in the history books.

 

What’s your best excuse for missing school, babes?
