In Indiana, you can leave school at 16, but you wouldn't have a diploma. Not unless you tested out of your remaining classes. You would be in high school until your 18 yrs old. Since you're only 15 going on 16 you would be a sophomore in high school to be exact. Usually in the states you start high school when your 15 and go till your 18. You start out as a freshmen then you become a sophomore, then you become a junior, and then finally you become a senior.
2 :
Are you going before your exams? if so in general you would need to stay in school until 18 in the USA, to get your high school diploma. I would check to see if you need to attend school if you've already do your GCSE in the UK.
3 :
In the US you can legally leave school at 16. However, we differ from the UK in that it's not a common practice to leave at 16. Anyone who does that leaves school without a diploma. You can test for a GED (General Education diploma) if you leave, but I'd recommend that you stay in school after coming to the US. Not only will it give you better opportunities for work and/or university education later in life, it will also give you a good opportunity to meet people your own age and learn about life in the US.

Yes, a teacher can confiscate items from you. Yes, a teacher can stop you from drinking in class. A teacher can, if reasonable, refuse permission to go to the toilet. You obviously have a problem with one of your teachers. It is possible that the teacher is being unreasonable but I would suggest that you just buckle down to you work and stop wasting energy on this.

I had to take French and German up until the last 2 years of high school then I had to pick between them. I chose German. But I think it depends on the high school, 95% of the time its usually French and German. Others schools may have other languages.
2 :
yes they are as france is so close to there country
3 :
I HAD to take french for my first two years of high school. then in year 10 we got options were you can choose either french,german or no language. i didnt choose a language( too stressful!!!)
4 :
No they have to take a modern language in the first 2 years but it can be french, german, spanish, or any other language. Students in Wales have to take Welsh in high school
