    Extractions: Office of Indian Affairs (c.1883-c.1916) Off-reservation boarding schools were considered by many government and boarding school officials to be major successes in forcing Native American children to adopt the ways of white "civilization" and simultaneously to abandon their own Native traditions. Carlisle Indian School in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, was a school of this type, as was Sherman Institute in Riverside, California. Native children were originally brought to Carlisle as hostages to insure that their parents would not continue armed resistance against the United States Army. However, many of the first Carlisle students became ill from diseases, such as tuberculosis, and died in the school's opening years. This may be a reason for Carlisle President Richard H. Pratt's letter to a physician in 1884, requesting help in selecting "healthy children" for the school from Indian reservations in the West. This letter is displayed here. In addition to providing medical treatment to its students, Carlisle Indian School Hospital also functioned as a preliminary nurse training facility, preparing Native American women to move on to regular nursing schools, as the souvenir album here shows.

In Progress Family Tree ... ShiDineh (Ts’íhootso - Mountainside Meadow) St. Michaels is located above a well watered, wooded and verdant meadow on the western slopes of Black Creek Valley. St. Michaels was named after a Catholic Saint (Saint Michael) from the convent name (St. Michaels Convent) that exists at the site. In the 1850s, the hillside near the Sisters at St. Michaels was the scene of a planned ambush by the Mexicans on the Navajos, frustrated by Tall Syphlis of the Diné Ana’ih (Enemy Navajos), who accompanied the Mexicans from Cebolleta. While the Navajos and Mexicans were making arrangements to exchange slaves, the Mexicans planted a cannon in a hidden spot, planning to fire it into the Navajos when they were all assembled. Tall Syphlis went to the Navajo camp and warned them. They invited him to join them. He accepted and was later one of the signers of the Navajo Treaty of 1868 under the name of Delgadito.

My husband and I work for the same company, he works as a rolling stock mechanic at La Plata mine, and I am a mining engineer at Navajo mine. My dad is 86 years old and lives in Window Rock, Arizona, on the Navajo reservation. My mom died when I was 6 years old, so my dad raised those of us who were still at home. Most of us went to boarding school, but my dad was the one we came home to for vacations and holidays. I have seven sisters who are all older than me and four brothers, two of whom are older and two are younger. Since my dad was the primary person in my life, I can honestly say he was a great supporter of my going into engineering. Although he has had no formal education and does not understand English, he made sure I had whatever book I ever wanted when I was really young. He also constantly told me that I needed to learn the ways of the Anglo people and that I needed to learn them well enough to put them to my use. I am sure he gave the same advice to all my brothers and sisters so that whenever I needed any help along the way, my family was always supportive and willing to help me.

    Extractions: Allan L. Forsythe and William L. Bainbridge International relocation managers are under pressures from families for maximum service while corporate leaders make efforts to curtail escalating costs. Significant efforts have been made by some companies to control expenses in areas such as personal transportation, tax reimbursement, moving and storage, furniture, real estate and lease assistance, meals, lodging and auto. Regretfully, since schools are a sensitive issue and very few international relocation managers consider themselves to be school experts, schooling frequently continues to be an area of high cost with little control on the part of the corporation. Many corporate international relocation policies continue to read like blank checks in the area of schooling for dependents. Typical policies indicate that the company will pay registration fees, tuition, books and local transportation costs reimbursed for children attending grades K-12. Boarding school costs are paid if the family deems local schooling options to be inadequate. While such policies on the surface seem perfectly reasonable, they can be quite costly. We have examined many situations where families with children enrolled in very average public school systems in the United States expect the company to pick up the tab for the most elite private schools on their new assignment. The numbers can be staggering. We know of many cases where families have submitted and have been granted schooling reimbursement in excess of $60,000 per year. This seems particularly wasteful when in some of the cases a less expensive alternative would have been better for the dependent children in terms of their transition back into U.S. schools and universities.

    Extractions: Rock Point Community School (RPCS) is a community-controlled contract school on the Navajo Reservation in Arizona, serving 500 students in grades K-12. Contract schools are the result of P.L. 93-638, the Indian Self-Determination and Educational Assistance Act. RPCS is chartered by the State of Arizona and sanctioned by the Navajo Tribal Council to provide educational services through a contract with the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA). By definition, the educational program in a contract school is based on the philosophy, needs and concerns of the local community. The RPCS Board, comprised of community members, meets monthly and business is conducted in the Navajo language. Over 95% of the school employees are Navajos or Native Americans from other tribes.

    Extractions: One group that is striving to improve the education of their children is Native Americans. It is also a group that has been nearly absent from the physical sciences. Furthermore, among the Navajo and Hopi in northern Arizona and New Mexico, few science teachers at Navajo and Hopi schools are themselves Native Americans, resulting in a lack of science role models for students. When asked to describe a professional astronomer before ever seeing one, many students in several 7th and 8th grade Navajo classes described an astronomer as a middle-aged, white male with a foreign accent. This picture is not conducive to having the students think of astronomy or science as a career for themselves. Nevertheless, both the Hopi and Navajo are keenly interested in improving their science education. Located in northern Arizona, adjacent to the Navajo and Hopi lands, Lowell Observatory is optimally situated to share the excitement of astronomy with several Native American peoples and contribute to enhancing science education in their schools. Therefore, in the summer of 1996 we initiated an outreach program to bring the excitement of astronomy to Navajo (Dine) and Hopi schools ( history funding ). (See Mercury, May/June 1999, Vol. 28, No. 3, page 18 for a published summary of our program).

Those interested in American Indian life, literature, and history as well as educators will find Children of the Dragonfly Multicultural Review SAIL Red Ink Sometimes the losses of childhood can be recovered only in the flight of the dragonfly. Native American children have long been subject to removal from their homes for placement in residential schools and, more recently, in foster or adoptive homes. The governments of both the United States and Canada, having reduced Native nations to the legal status of dependent children, historically have asserted a surrogate parentalism over Native children themselves. Children of the Dragonfly Invoking the dragonfly spirit of Zuni legend who helps children restore a way of life that has been taken from them, the anthology explores the breadth of the conflict about Native childhood. Included are works of contemporary authors Sherman Alexie, Joy Harjo, Luci Tapahonso, and others; classic writers Zitkala-Sa and E. Pauline Johnson; and contributions from twenty important new writers as well. They take readers from the boarding school movement of the 1870s to the Sixties Scoop in Canada and the Indian Child Welfare Act of 1978 in the United States. They also spotlight the tragic consequences of racist practices such as the suppression of Indian identity in government schools and the campaign against Indian childbearing through involuntary sterilization.
