I fail to see how sending kids or Juvenile Detention for truancy would incentivize them to go to school, if anything it would just make them think "well I am already in trouble here, I messed up already, so what do I have to lose?".
There should be consequences to truancy that would positively impact the student and reinforce them into going to school, something along the lines of in school suspensions and community services.
