but the thing is, it is not a part of the education system. There are plenty of ways students can learn about the world wars and the sacrifices of our conscripted and non-conscripted troops, be it through written essays, research projects, presentations, and etc.

And what better way to learn about it then an interactive event, say, some sort of ceremony that we should hold every year?

Battlefield tours and similar events can help to show that it's not just something on paper.

Oh absolutely! Actually I've had the privilege of touring parts of France, Belgium and the Netherlands that were ravaged by war with my unit back in 2009. I also visited quite a few memorials across Europe, including the massive monument dedicated to Canada's fallen soldiers. It was a profoundly interesting experience and one I'll cherish for the rest of my life.

Oh and I agree with you, and that is why I would strongly urge that these students attend those ceremonies but I don't think it should be compulsory for the same reason I strongly urge people to vote but recognize that is a right of someone to do, and that they have the freedom in choosing whether or not to.

They have to go to school, this is a school event on school time, thus they should have to go to this assembly.
