Best Answer

You can drop out at the age of 16, however, they have the right to suspend your driving privileges until you complete school or turn 18. However you REALLY need to think this through. I know things may seem difficult but they do get better, I promise. You will permanently affect the rest of your life with this choice. You cannot get good jobs, attend college, even enlist in the military if you have dropped out and not obtained your GED. The new GED test is VERY difficult. Talk to your parents or a counselor before you make such a monumental decision.

Only children who are at least 16 years of age before September 15 may drop out during that school year. A child whose 16th birthday is on or after September 15 must attend school that entire school year. Iowa Code section 299.1A.
