Move over, Ferris Bueller, there’s a new kid Cubs king in town.

Tucker Steckman, a fourth-grader from Illinois, took a page straight out of the 1986 classic film “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” on Tuesday when he skipped classes at Wells Elementary School in East Moline to catch the Cubs’ home opener with his father, the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

“Skipping school … shh!” read a sign held by Tucker outside Wrigley Field. “Don’t tell Principal Versluis.”

The cheeky photo — complete with Tucker’s “censored” face — caught the eyes of Major League Baseball, which tweeted the pic to more than 8.3 million followers.

“Ferris Bueller?” one reply read. “Is that you?”

But unlike the John Hughes flick, in which Bueller deftly avoided his principal all around Chicago, Tucker actually ran into his while at the game.

“I saw him and I was kind of ducking down,” Versluis told the newspaper. “I didn’t want him to see me either. I’m here with my son, Aiden, who’s in fifth grade, and I called out sick for the day!”

Versluis, 43, shrugged off both students’ absences, telling the newspaper it was “all good.”

“I haven’t missed a day in six years,” he said. “I took [Monday] off and when the game was postponed due to weather, I got special permission from my superintendent to take another day.”

As for Tucker, Versluis said the boy’s unscheduled day off wouldn’t hurt him in the long run.

“He’s a great kid,” he said. “He was student leader of the year. I thought the sign was hilarious.”

Versluis later posted photos of the game on Facebook, acknowledging that the collective sick day was blown up by the chance encounter.

“What an amazing day today!” Versluis wrote. “No secrets … took the kid out of school for the Cubs game and we ended up all over the Chicago news media.”

Versluis also thanked Tucker personally.

“Thanks Tucker for the memories,” he wrote. “This is what leadership is all about! Didn’t get the W but what a day!”
