Young travelers flying alone

Me and my friend are 17 and are flying alone in a few weeks, do we need some sort of identification? Will a school id work or do we need a state id?

Since you are under 18 you won't need ID however if you look older than 17 it doesn't hurt to have an ID (school or state ID) just in case. I was big and tall at 17 and never had any issues saying i was under 18.
