Finding out the WPA key

[Boots-]

Hello, I was just wondering, if I was on a laptop in school that is connected to a secure wireless network, can I figure out the password to the network somehow on that laptop?

If you're looking for instructions on how to hack a wireless network, especially that of a school's, you've come to the wrong place.

If the school will not disclose their passkey, you ought to respect their wishes and not attempt to connect unauthorized computers to their network.
