I think that this depends on the state you reside in. I can not see how dropping out of high school should affect this unless you are not a legal adult (in which case you wouldn't be able to adopt anyway). As long as you can raise a child in a safe environment I see no reason (single or married) that you can't adopt a child. Check with your city or state about their adoption laws.

Do gay people have to be married to adopt?

No. In the United States, sexual orientation is generally irrelevant for single-parent adoptions. There are some states where same-sex married couples can jointly adopt. There are states where unmarried couples cannot jointly adopt and same-sex married couples are legally considered unmarried. There are some states where single gay parents can adopt, but same-sex married couples cannot. There are also many states where the adoption may be legal, but there are no legal protections against discrimination by the adoption agency against gays and lesbians. In general, however, if you are a single gay person and wish do adopt a child, you may do so. Joint adoption and "step-parent" adoption are more tricky.
