Unfortunately, Idaho has NO law of emancipation. Idaho law requires all kids to attend school through the 8th grade, so my advise to you is that you attempt to 1) mend fences, stay in school, it won't be too long till you're on your own, yada, yada, yada; or, 2) seek permission to stay...

The fact that her father hasn't had any contact with her since she was 8 months old, DUE TO A NO CONTACT ORDER, against the father, is problematic. The fact that he hasn't paid CS in 7 years is irrelevant to your question. Idaho has a statute regarding name change. It is found in Title... View More

An Idaho attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for two weeks. Don't lose any more time waiting for a response. Reach out to attorneys without further delay. Nationwide, the timetables for filing appeals tend to be short, within the order of days. Good luck
