Should school attendance be mandatory? In your answer, be sure to explore what the function of education is, and what our nation would look like if the masses were less educated.

I believe school attendance should not be mandatory. The reason I believe this is, because there is a lot of students who slack off and only downgrade our school. Attending school is important but some students do not intend to go to school. If a student really wants to study and obtain an education then they will attend school without being forced to. I believe education is important and should be provided to he who desires it. If they really want to receive one they'll work hard to and make use of the education offered.
