In "The Outsiders," Ponyboy refers to soda as a "dropout" because Soda has chosen to leave school to work and support the family. This term reflects the broader themes of social class and the struggles faced by the characters, where education is often overshadowed by the need for survival. Soda's decision to drop out signifies the sacrifices made for family and the difficult choices that many young people face in their environment.
ponyboy is a good kid and a star student that gets his grades up and study a lot but ponyboy always wonders why soda dropped out and why he couldn't go to school like him, but Darry makes him do his work and stay a good kid while he works to get them money and food but soda also does the same and they both want ponyboy to stay in school and focus on his work because he's a smart boy and he knows how to stay on track

I don't see why you would have to quit school. It looks like you are putting everything in reverse order. Are you trying to quit school so you can get a job in order to quit the job and get unemployment?
