School skipper

Ross

I believe the answer is:

truant

'school skipper' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for truant that I've seen before include "Unauthorised absentee from school" , "Shirker" , "Pupil absent without permission" , "School avoider" , "errant schoolchild" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
