Yes, you will legally become an adult at age 18.
You are free to fly little birdie, fly.
Be advised, even hypothetical flights of fancy aren't free.
Good luck, welcome to the adult world, soon!
Trust me, it ain't what you think it is, and after you get here, you'll want out. LOL

Sara, the answer to your question is determined by the rules of the school district. To get a definite answer one way or the other, you'll have to ask them.

As cbg noted, part of being on your own at 18 is having a job and paying taxes in the district according to some states.
