Another Answer: I an in Livingston parish and you can drop as low as 17, with parental consent and as low as 16, with court appeal, and 18 by your self.

I am in Lafayette Parish and the legal age is 18 years old. It was changed five years ago. There are two ways to get a diploma outside of going to high school. You must be enrolled and attending school unless you are at least 18 years old. Charter School allows you to earn a high school diploma. (This is NOT Laps or Caps.) The Adult Education Program allows you to earn a GED diploma. When asked what if the child doesn't go to school, I was told that the school board proceeds with court and jail for the parent. I was quoted this information from the Lafayette Parish School Board today.

You are allowed to drop out of school at any age. But, it is never a good choice. I mean , who am I to interfere with your personal life, but whatever it is , Yes you can drop out of school at the age of 16 :)
