The law states that all children between the ages of six and sixteen must attend school. That can be a public school, a private school, or a home school. By law to quit or drop out of school at age sixteen you also need the signature of one of your parents.

Sections 25. 085 and 25. 086 of the Texas Education Code indicate that students must attend school until the age of 18, unless they have graduated or received a GED. Students can attend public or private schools, or be home schooled to meet the requirements. Failure to attend school can result in legal charges being filed against the parent or the student.
