And they have no emancipation statute. *When a minor becomes legally married he or she is considered to be emancipated for all practical legal purposes other than those that are restricted by law, for example buying and/or consuming alcohol; that being the case, a married minor can drop out of school without consent of parents, guardian or authorities. Arkansas Statute 9-26-104, "Removal of Disability of Age of a Minor".

Most students who drop out of school after getting married, is because they can't afford to go to school anymore. They get a job, which does not pay as much as job that a person who graduates gets. Stay in school, graduate, get a job, then get married. Your marriage will probably last longer , if you have a good income, than if you are poor.
No, Arkansas Compulsory Education Law requires the minor to remain in school until the age of seventeen; the minor must be seventeen by Oct 1st of the school year. Also the age of majority in Arkansas is 18, which would make it "illegal" for a minor to leave the family home w/o parental permission and adherence to Arkansas Juvenile Code guidelines.
No, pregnancy does not make one an adult. She will still require the permission of her parents or a court order. Even to drop out of school would require permission from the parents.
