Extractions: GreatSchools.net lists all private schools that are registered with the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) on our site. You can find private schools by school name, district, city, county or address by using the search box at the top of your state's homepage. Our site will generate a list of all schools in the geographic area you choose. You can click on "Private Schools" at the top of the list to jump directly to our listings for private schools, then click on a school name to view its profile. Why does GreatSchools.net have less information about private schools than about public schools? GreatSchools.net has less detailed School Profiles for private schools than for public schools because public schools are funded with tax dollars and, therefore, are required to report detailed data, including test scores, class size, attendance and graduation rates. Private schools, which are not funded with public money, do not have to report data about their schools or make it available to the public. GreatSchools.net accesses information about public schools from individual state departments of education and national organizations such as the National Center for Education Statistics and the American Institutes for Research, but these organizations do not have information about private schools.

American Indian Boarding Schools boarding schools were an important part of the American Indian experience. Sherman Indian School in Riverside, california The Sherman Indian School http://www.kporterfield.com/aicttw/articles/boardingschool.html
Extractions: Undoing the Shameful Legacy Boarding School History Pratt was an Army Captain, not an educator. He had been put in charge of 72 Apache prisoners held at Ft. Marion near St. Augustine, Florida. The Army said that prisoners were suspected of having murdered white settlers, but never proved this claim. Captain Pratt started a prison school for the men in his charge. When the Ft. Marion prisoners were allowed to return home in 1878, he convinced 22 of them to continue their schooling. The Hampton Institute, a school for freed slaves in Virginia, accepted several of them. Carlisles opening allowed Pratt to resign his Army commission and to practice his ideas about educating Indians. Pratts goal was to "kill the Indian, not the man." In order to assimilate American Indian children into European culture, Pratt subjected them to what we would call brainwashing tactics today. These are the same methods that cult leaders use to coerce recruits to commit completely to a new way of thinking. Boarding School Brainwashing Techniques Many boarding schools were established far away from reservations so that students would have no contact with their families and friends. Parents were discouraged from visiting and, in most cases, students were not allowed to go home during the summer.
American Indian Elder Cohorts Indian boarding schools were started as early as 1812 with the first 1848 US defeated Mexico; california became part of US california Gold Rush mass http://www.gasi.org/diversity/cohort/amer_indian_cohort.htm
Extractions: return to Cohorts grid. Elder in this description is used in an ethnogeriatric definition referring to years of age, which is different from the American Indian use of the term. The term "Elder" in the Indian community denotes a position of leadership, based on experience, spirituality, and community service, rather than chronological age. Therefore in working with Indians who are elderly, the distinction must be made between those who are "old" and those who are "Elders." "The American Indian experience is different from other ethnic minority groups in that 1) they were here first, 2) health care, education, and social programs were bought and paid for with ceded land, and 3) each elder is defined by the experience of the tribe to which he/she belongs and that tribe's relationship with the federal government. There are 535 federally recognized tribes and Alaska Native villages, and 126 tribes trying to get federal recognition or re-certification from previous "termination" of the tribe's relationship with the federal government" (Yeo, et. al.,pg. 11).

"I had a big tardy issue," said the tall, slender 17-year-old. Most schools try to persuade students to get out of bed in the morning by lowering their grades or giving them detention when they don't, but Maya Angelou is one of a small but growing number of schools that have a different approach to the problem. They invite teenagers who need extra help to live in school quarters.

The Partnership: A Common-sense approach for working with low-income communities BACK to our current NEWSLETTER page back to top Ordeal of California Indians from 1890 - Turn of the Century and Beyond This is the third of four articles written by Vernon T. Johnson, a full blooded California Indian. California Indians that survived the ordeal of genocide were looked upon as primitive savages that needed to be civilized by white Christians and "sympathetic" Government officials. In 1890, Indian Boarding Schools were established and infants as young as 3 months old and other minor children were forcefully taken away from their parent s and transported to several established Indian boarding schools for de-culturalizing. Since Indians were not citizens they had no legal right to protest. Schools opened up in Greenville, Plumas County, Ft. Bidwell, Hoopa and other sites in California. Children were severely beaten for speaking their language with friends and relatives or singing Indian songs and strict discipline was imposed. Academic classes were neglected and the curriculum emphasized vocational instruction to teach children skills that would benefit the white population. Boys were taught harness making, shoe repair and farming and trained to become soldiers. Girls learned home making and how to work in laundries and kitchens.
Extractions: August 2000. Click an image to read its caption. The legacy of non-reservation Native American boarding schools can be traced to the ideas and efforts of one man, Captain Richard Henry Pratt. A cavalry officer who had commanded African American troops against American Indians in the west, Pratt developed his notion of "assimilation through total immersion" while in charge of incarcerated Indians at Ft. Marion Florida. Unlike many of his contemporaries, Pratt did not believe there were innate genetic differences in American Indians. For him, environment explained all of human nature. Using the specious analogy that slavery had assimilated African Americans, Pratt contended that non-reservation boarding schools could accomplish the same result for native peoples. In 1879, Pratt got his chance to test his experiment when an old army barracks in Pennsylvania was transformed into the Carlisle Indian School (a National Historic Landmark). With Pratt as both founder and superintendent, Carlisle became the model for federal Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) boarding schools across the Midwest and Southwest during the late 19th century. By 1902, there existed 25 federally supported, non-reservation boarding schools for American Indians across 15 states and territories with a total enrollment of 6,000 students. In Alaska, two boarding schools at Sitka and Wrangell were also created with the express purpose of providing manual and domestic training for a select group of Alaska Native children, those considered "the brightest boys and girls."

He has been Senior Staff Attorney, Center for Law and Education, Harvard University; and formerly was Staff Attorney, California Indian Legal Services, Native American Rights Fund Division. Presently he is Associate Professor of Law, Gonzaga University, Spokane, Washington. IN REVIEWING Indian education policy (see Note 69), reference must be made to the legal relations between the Indians and the state and federal governments (see Note 1). Who has the legal responsibility for providing educational services to Indians and how is this responsibility reflected in policy? 1. Federal Obligation Generally, the federal government has no legal obligation to provide educational services for Indian children. The Congress has authorized the Bureau of Indian Affairs to provide educational services and has regularly appropriated funds for that purpose, but no statute requires the continuation of educational programs (see Note 70). The BIA, which operates some 200 schools for Indians, could probably close them all next year. Federal policy reflecting this legal relation was set forth recently by a BIA spokesman:

Insiders Tell Of Boarding School Past And Present Mountain Park Baptist Church and boarding Academy, Bob Willis. Education standards are so loose in the public schools in california. http://www.rickross.com/reference/mountain_park/mountain_park17.html
Extractions: By Kim Bell Parents from both coasts, with money and troubled children, descend on this town surrounded by rugged hills. Some arrive in private planes. A few rent Cadillac's and drive from Lambert Field in St. Louis. They drop off their children at Mountain Park Baptist Boarding Academy, a strict religious school that claims an 85 percent success rate in turning around unruly youths. It has about 200 boys and girls on its campus. Even the killing of a student last Monday didn't stop Vern Carson, of Castro Valley, Calif. He arrived Tuesday to drop off his granddaughter for a year's stay. Despite the slaying, Carson said he left her in good hands. "They were very upfront about what had happened," Carson said of the killing. "Education standards are so loose in the public schools in California. I'm hoping she gets good Christian training." Carson said he heard about the school from a friend who sent two daughters, one of whom was suicidal when she arrived. Carson said she now wants to stay and graduate. He said the $750-a-month fee includes food, board, and schooling. "The whole package seemed very good," he said. On Monday, William Andrew Futrelle II, 16, of Boca Raton, Fla., was found slain outside the boys' dormitory, his throat was slashed and his head beaten. A Highway Patrol investigator said Futrelle was killed by three students who feared that Futrelle wouldn't go along with their plans to take over the academy and get on network television.
