Dropping out will not help your future. Finish school.

Congratulations on admitting that you lack what it takes to be a worthwhile person. An education is the single most important thing that prepares you to be a success in life. Even if regular school isn't for you you could at least look into vocational education.

No. They can not come Into your house unless it's warranted.
And don't listen to these right-wing fools below. High school or even college is overrated. I'm making **** money working at one of the best firms and I've completed 4 years of high school, 4 years of undergraduate, and 2 years of graduate versus a close pal of mine who is making 6 times what I make owning a liquor store. He dropped out of high school like many other successful people of this world.
Some high school drop outs become nothing in life because that was their goal in the first place. Some people drop out because they don't need it.
You are a smart kid. You don't need high school or college. Trust me. It'll be the best decision you'll ever make.

Uh, of course they can come to your house. What would they do? Probably arrest you. Many people don't realize this, and it usually doesn't get taken to this level, but skipping school is an actual crime... I have a juvenile burglary suspect I'm looking for now who has an active arrest warrant out on him for skipping school.

At the rate you're going, they won't have to wait long for you to be out of the house, and they won;t need truancy as an excuse to nab you.

Sure they can. You are committing a crime, and so are your parents. In some States they can arrest both you and your folks. Sounds like you need to be in juvenile hall or in foster care anyhow. How about getting your laZY A$$ TO SCHOOL.

If you're in the UK, then truancy is a criminal offence, so yes the police can come to your house. Please note YOU are not committing the offence, YOUR PARENTS or LEGAL GUARDIANS are and they will receive a criminal record and a fine.

Instead of berating you, I will give you a serious answer:
This depends on the age your state allows you to legally drop out. In my state (Michigan) the age is 16, even without parental consent. There is nothing that can legally be done to you.

Highschool dropout? You future looks promising. Enjoy your life of alcohol and drugs and unplanned pregnancies and renting disgusting apartments in bad neighborhoods and riding a bike everywhere cause you can't afford a car. Good luck!

They wouldn't come to your house because you're dropping out. And they would need your parents permission to come in anyway.
