More FridgeLogic occurs when one considers how apparently negative consequences for non-attendance only occur if Non-Giving-Up School Guy finds TheProtagonist. Not actually showing up to class multiple times really results in F's, phone calls, letters to parents, etc. (Usually {{Handwaved}} by them being tricky enough to forge excuses, but in RealLife this can only go so far.) Or, for that matter, how "negative consequences for non-attendance" apparently don't apply to teachers and principals who abruptly abandon their duties to the school at large in favor of hunting down a single truant child. In RealLife, school authorities probably wouldn't take kindly to that.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Arthur}}'': An unusual example in the blizzard episode, where Mr. Ratburn forces not the students, but ''his boss'' [[ButtMonkey Principal Haney]] to stay overnight at the school to help the janitor do emergency maintenance on the plumbing, for fear of an accident shutting down the school for weeks or even ''months''.

* The ''Creator/GordonKorman'' book 'Don't Care High'' has the guidance counselor Mr. Morrison, who strives to get the extremely apathetic student body (who won't even join the sports teams or bother turning in accurate homework assignments) to care about something and displays almost alarming ecstasy once they finally do.

* ''Webcomic/TheGreenhouse'': The flashback chapters show us that [[spoiler:Avery]] was a rare student version, doing everything in her power to keep Mica on campus (up to and including tackling her out of a tree) and encouraging her to actually do her schoolwork, so Mica wouldn't get in trouble with the teachers. Cute, even wholesome, but [[CallForward with the benefit of foresight]], this was obviously an early sign of her controlling personality, her ''need'' to have the people she liked doing things her way and only her way.

* Mr. Strickland in ''Film/BackToTheFuture''. It is shown that in the 30 years he's been working at the school, he spent most of it patrolling the corridors, watching for late students whom he calls "slackers".
