I don't know the answer to this question, but I have something else that you really should consider. Before you drop out of school, you really should take a look at what kinds of jobs you can get as a high school dropout. If you do this, you will find that the jobs that you can get with this little education really don't pay very well. You will have a very hard time supporting yourself, let alone a family, on these types of jobs. You may not like school or be a very good student, but you will do much better in life if you stick it out and complete high school. Beyond that you will still need to get yourself trained in some sort of trade. This does not necessarily mean going on to college, but it will mean gaining skills in some skill that is marketable and will earn you a living. This can be something like auto mechanic, welder, plumber, construction worker, etc. These jobs can still pay fairly well without your getting a college degree, but you could find it harder to get the training and jobs in these fields if you don't have at least high school diploma. So, stop thinking about dropping out of school, knuckle down, and finish high school. You will probably regret it if you don't.
