The only surprising thing here is that students the students actually attended the "mandatory" assembly. With the exception of the very first assembly my freshman year I skipped every single one despite them being "mandatory". I went as far as sneaking off when my biology teacher tried to walk us to one of those cock sucker conventions. I even got my mom to pick me up when I assured her that there was no way I would get caught ditching. I learned a good life lesson: Things are only mandatory if there are real consequences from disregarding the mandate.
To be fair, sneaking off usually only worked because the majority of the student body ended up attending these things.
It actually is funny how the arbitrarily strict nature of these things, and other random situations in public schooling, actually offer a good life lesson on what kinds of dystopian things to watch out for.
Then again, normal kids get time out of class and get to ridicule the fags mercilessly among themselves, much like we would mock cheerleaders at pep rallies back in my day.
"That's gay" is a substitute for "that's idiotic" for good reason.

This was probably REALLY mandatory.
Your high school sounds way different than mine.

Just call in sick is what I would do if someone was forcing me to attent some propaganda assembly.
