Answer 1

Tell them you have diarrhea. They won't let you in the water then.  

Answer 2

well if you're a girl just say you're on your period.

you can just lie and say you dont know how to use a tampon

Answer 3

Ya it would work  to get you out of class for a week. But after that I don't think that excuse will work again. So suck it up and jump into the pool!
