You should check John Taylor Gatto's "The Underground History of American Education", available free online, for the truth behind schools, and why the people of Massachusetts rioted when compulsory schooling was forced upon them. The militia was brought in to enforce attendance.

America was a nation of independent-minded entrepreneurs and doers.

Now, in school, you first undergo a medical exam for which your parents must pay, to be sure that you have not suffered sexual abuse.
Then you are conditioned to behave and conform.
Meanwhile, the school has the right to search your locker, edit the school newspaper until it meets their guidelines, snoop on your life from day one,
and keep cumulative records of your time in school which are not subject to review or editing by either the student or parents.

By the time you graduate you are ready to take your place as a mindless consumer who will acquiesce to authority in any form, since the rebelliousness has long since been crushed out of you. Only the hormones kicking in help you to regain that "chip on your shoulder" attitude that is necessary to keep any society from stagnating.
