VIDEO: Lin-Manuel Miranda personally excuses high school student from history test
ATLANTA, G.A. (WBCS 880) — Lin-Manuel Miranda helped a Georgia high school student skip out on a history test with a rather unique excuse.
Luke Stevens, of Atlanta, bailed on the exam to spend time with "Hamilton" creator at an event Stevens' mother was organizing. When Stevens teacher didn't believe his excuse, Miranda sent a personal message asking for his excusal.
"Miss Rosner, this is Lin-Manuel Miranda, I'm sorry he can't be in your history class right now, but he's with me," Miranda says in the video, posted to Twitter by Stevens' mother.
"We're going to be going over the Bill of Rights, and anything you may be covering right now," Miranda added. "We cover a lot of it in about two and a half hours of 'Hamilton.'"
When my son told his US History teacher that he wasn't gonna be in class yesterday because @Lin_Manuel was having lunch at our home, she didn't believe him. She does now! @FultonCoSchools @The_CHSKnights pic.twitter.com/0lcORmLmO2
