Like someone said before there was a parents consent form that allows you to drop out and get a license. I had issues when at 16 trying to get my license because it was during xmas break and I forgot to get my paper work verifying i was actually in school and didnt want to wait till school started back up. So me and my dad were at the DMV like WTF because they didnt ask for it till the very end of the process. We asked them what kinda options we had and although I didnt drop out my dad actually signed this form and they allowed me to get my license that day without proof I was in school.
