Sure. But why would you want to? I mean education is very important nowadays and i think before you do anything drastic, you should think about it carefully. It'll be very hard to find a good job without an education. Think before you act...please
Smile.sm - In most states you can, although you may want to check individual state laws. And yes, education is important, but who's to say that government-mandated education is the best option? It is something you should think through carefully, and not do unless it feels right to you; however, a great majority of colleges accept GEDs and if you score decent on the ACT or SAT tests, you should be fine getting a job. Good luck!
Everyone I talk to regret dropping out, coz then theres no going back, and you only have one life.....

∙ 14y agoyes and no. it is possible but you need to be 18 to legally drop out- that's anywhere from grade 11 to 13 ( voluntary 5th year). however if you choose to simply not attend classes you are being truant which is illegal and will not get you out of going to school. you will just be sent off to attend a special program perhaps in a separate location from your normal high school.----
actually, I think you can drop out when ever you want. You won't get a good job, though. & on top of that, you'll have to go back to school when you get older if you do want a good job. hope i helped! - wikibabe12
From what I was able to see in the state of Florida. I was allowed to drop out the minute I turned 16. All it required was for your parent or legal guardian to be present (for his signature). After that you can go ahead get your GED and get into a community college and eventually on your way to a university.

However, there can be other reasons why your parent wishes you to remain at home, for instance: if a custodial parent is receiving child support until you complete high school, if you move out the child support paid to them would stop.
