Q: In Ohio, can 17 y.o. w/d from school with parents permission to pursue study & taking of the HiSet w/o FT employment?
A: In Ohio, a 17-year-old may withdraw from school with their parents' permission to pursue alternative educational options, including taking the HiSET (High School Equivalency Test), without the requirement of full-time employment. Ohio law allows for students to pursue educational alternatives such as homeschooling, private schooling, or participating in a HiSET preparation program as long as the parents or legal guardians provide consent and comply with the necessary regulations. It's important to ensure that you follow the proper procedures for withdrawing from school and pursuing alternative education. Each option might have specific requirements that need to be met, and it's recommended to research and understand these requirements thoroughly.
