That said, compulsory education laws are handled at the state level, so the actual ages may vary. Click here for an overview of exemptions as defined by various courts. High school is mandatory, but if your parents sign a paper at 16 you can drop out. Or if you don't complete high school you have to pass your GED (General Educational Development tests) to get a diploma. You can get your GED at any age in the US. Argument #1 The Court should rule in favor of Yoder. The things that his children will learn in High School are values which go against many of the Amish' religious beliefs. The Yoder children will have enough education in order to function in Amish society. Argument #2 The Supreme Court should rule in favor of the state of Wisconsin. The reason the state requires compulsory education until the age of 16 is in order to look out for the wellbeing of children.
