Who's that kid?

A Panama City high schooler decided he didn't want to attend his regular school, Mosley High, on Tuesday. But apparently he didn't want to miss out on the experience, either. 

So he took a seat in nearby Bay High instead.

Transfers like this aren't allowed, it turns out. So the boy, whose name hasn't been released, got a very different type of education than the usual curriculum — he was arrested for trespassing, the Panama City News Herald reports.

At least he wasn't on the streets selling or using.
