Answer #1
wait till you are 18 then you can apply for your own passport. I don't know how long you will be in Spain but you need to check both US and Spain immigration laws, also check to see if you need a visa. every country has their own laws of how long (days and months) a visitor from a different country should remain in their country.

For short term:As a US citizen, you need only to have a valid US passport with a minimum six-months validity upon entry. Spain is a member of the Schengen Agreement - you do not need a visa, and you may remain up to 90 days; employment is not authorized. A Schengen visa for stays over 90 days is not available. It may also be useful for you to have a notarized letter (translated into Spanish) from both of your parents consenting to your visit, and an affidavit from your grandmother, demonstrating her ability and willingness to provide for all of your expenses during your visit.For longer than three months:There are two possible long-term visas which may apply to you: A resident visa for family reunification; or a resident visa for work. An initial long-term visa is usually granted for one year after which it you may apply to have it renewed for an additional two years. You will need to apply at the nearest Spanish mission in the US. The following are the minimum requirements: A passport; a police certificate; a health certificate; and a personal interview.Contact the Embassy of Spain in Washinton, DC for more information:

Answer #4
Curious1usa is correct. However there might be another Visa you could get. If you are going to go to school while in Spain you could also look into what you need to do for a Student Visa.
