Don't get me wrong, school is extremely important and having a degree myself makes me push advanced education even more. But to think that education is THAT important is ludicrous. If the student is doing well in class, I see absolutely no reason why he can't skip school.
Why not have both? education and life knowledge? Thats the route I took. I reload all my ammo. I long distance shoot. I hunt quite a bit, and am pretty successful. I build my own longbows, and use em to hunt with. And I didn't skip school to do it.
