… and just how is it that children are legally compelled to be there at all ?

Compulsory-Attendance/Truancy-Laws directly violate U.S. Constitution (5th Amendment) and all State Constitutions.

Supposedly in America, “no person” shall be deprived of “personal liberty” without judicial due process and conviction for individual crimes. Sentencing all children to many years in government schools (or government-controlled schools/programs) … is a blatant deprivation of liberty.

Yawn. That Bill-of-Rights stuff is so 18th Century.
