    Default Not to repeat

    "Yesterday Benny skipped class again and the principal made her to write a guaranty paper/warnantee paper not to repeat this"

    Does this sentence sound natural in conversations?

    Thank you so much

    No.

    "... the principal made him promise in writing not to do this again."
