I reported it to the it desk and was barred from using the school computers for a month for hacking the school computers.
When the letter was sent home about it dad wanted to know what I had done so I told him and he thought, yea you did the right thing I'll call the principal and get this sorted.
Dad use to be the treasurer of the parent teacher committee so he knew the school admin quite well. My teacher for computer studies got a note from the principal the next day that I was permitted to use the computers again.
