I'm not going to lie, your situation is unfortunate. And I completely understand the fact that people telling you not to move out is fustrating, because it doesn't seem to help you at all. But the problem is leagally, you cannot rent out a place until 18, or drop out of school until 16 with a parental signature. Also you must be at the very least 16 years of age before getting a real job, which the truth is there are rare jobs a 16 year old can have that pay enough for rent. The only place you can move into at your age would be a dangerous, run down area and that would not be good for you in any way. Thus, i suggest moving into your grandmother's or some other relative. Ask then sincerely, and say it is for your best and that would be your best route to freedom. I understand this is not what you want to hear, but it is the truth.

You might have some problems with that...
Most landlords require renters to sign a contract when renting, and I think you have to be 18 years old in order to sign a legal contract.
Also, remember that you would be paying more than just monthly rent. Most rentals require a deposit up front, which is usually double-rent (first and last month's rent). If you have any pets, there is the trouble of finding a place that allows them, and then usually a pet deposit.
Electricity, gas (if needed), phone, water, sewer, garbage pickup, cable, all these things cost money, and many can require contracts and/or deposits.
Many places will want to see, or make a copy of, your driver's license. So that's a problem too.
Plus you have the expense of your food, & other personal expenses (soap, shampoo, deodorant, hair products, beauty products, laundry detergent, clothes, pots & pans, dishes, glasses, silverware, and all that type of stuff.)
Finding a job to pay for all that at 15? I'm afraid it's not very likely. Many older people with diplomas still struggle to pay for all of that.

Well first of all, in some states you can't drop out of school legally until you're 16 years old. Also it's going to be hard to find a place that's going to let you stay there considering you're only 15. Why not try moving in with a friend for a while..you probably wouldn't even have to pay. But i guess if you really want a job you could try a hair salon, nail salon, tanning beds, walk dogs, rake leaves, movies, fast food places, or the mall. Go to some place that has a bulletin board..people put up wanted ads & now hiring ads there. Im sure you could find something. good luck
