(If you are a teacher, just make an appointment to talk with the principal. After your meeting, you can follow up with a written, official request for a leave of absence, if the principal requires this for record-keeping purposes. However, I think this question deals with students, so the rest of the answer will be directed at students.)
If you are a student in high school or elementary school, your parent or legal guardian should request your absence for any non-medical reason including travel with the family for an important event. If it is a medical reason, they may also need to provide a doctor’s note. (If you are a college student, you can write the letter yourself and direct it to each individual professor.)
If a school does grant a leave of absence, you may be required to make up any work you would miss. Your absence may also affect your grades.
If it is a very short absence, you might be able to just ask the teacher instead of the principal.
Below is an example of how you could respectfully ask for a leave of absence.

Dear Dr. Sharma,
I am requesting a leave of absence from school due to serious medical diagnosis (cancer). I anticipate I will have to be out of school for at least four weeks. I have already discussed this with the teachers involved to arrange for making up the work I will miss.
Please let me know your advice and what else I should do to make up any work.
Sincerely,
Sofia Smith
