Legal Question in Education Law in Indiana

I do not wish to go to my high school graduation due to personal reasons. I have 2 main tools at my disposal for getting away with absolutely no retaliation on my school boards part; 1: i owe money for a calculator, and i will continue to ignore this until they tell me i cant walk, if this does not happen however i will call their bluff on "sending a letter to the state because i did not go to the mandatory practices, achievement night, and of course graduation itself. I will call the bluff because of one simple thing i caught onto, if the "letter sent to the state" was of any importance to me getting my diploma (which he said i would get a couple days later if i where to skip), then i wouldn't get the diploma before he "sent the letter". The second tool i have at my disposal is that today during our first practice, the principal lead the entire body of seniors in prayer, to jesus christ mind you. He said we do not have to pray if we dont want to, but because we where FORCED to remain in the room, while he said the prayer on the microphone i feel insulted, that is the same as standing up and telling everyone that god is not real. Because the school is a state run organization i believe that this act would violate the separation of church and state Claus we all hear about at some point; by not just letting the group pray at will he specifically prayed to a popular deity, this would be him supporting 1 religion over the rest, which i feel is a violation, as well as offensive. I have not researched this matter, thats what i am doing this for. any help will be appreciated.
