NEOSHO COUNTY
by Anna L. Zehner, county superintendent NEOSHO COUNTY Prior to the organization of the county of Neosho, in 1866, a few subscription schools had been taught in the county; but of these we have no record save in the memories of the pioneer settlers. One of the first, if not the first, schools in the county was taught by Miss Emma Packard, in an old, deserted log cabin, which stood on an eminence about 2 1/2 miles east of where the city of Chanute now stands. With the organization of the county, in 1866, came the tide of immigration, and during the two years which Mr. S. E. Beach, (to whom we are indebted for the facts concerning the early history of the schools,) the first county superintendent, held the office, he was able to organize 14 schools districts. Some of these districts were formed prior to the Government survey of the county, and their boundary lines were rather indefinite, creeks, hollows and ridges of land being used instead of the section, half-section and quarter-section lines, as we now have them.

PARSONS SCHOOLS Before the organization of the city, a school district, No. 33, had been formed by R. J. Elliot, superintendent of public instruction for Labette county, sometime in the year 1867. At a school-district meeting held soon after for that purpose, the following officers were chosen: Anson Kellogg, director; George M. Wilson, clerk; Joseph Simpson, treasurer. At this meeting a certain per cent. was levied for teachers' fund, which, when collected, amounted to $14.04, as may be seen by the treasurer's books. The first school, a three-months term, was taught by Miss Marla Hussey, for the sum of $16.67 per month. Even this amount had to be raised by subscription. The whole number enrolled was 15; the average daily attendance, 10.

Tales of the Bark Lodges

Daniel F. Littlefield, Jr. and James W. Parins
University of Arkansas, Little Rock
(Used with permission.) Hen-Toh, whose birth name was Bertrand N. O. Walker, was a Wyandot writer of exceptional talent, whose works were never widely circulated and are little known to the reading public today. He was born into the Big Turtle Clan on the Wyandot lands in Kansas on September 5, 1870, the youngest of eight children born to Isaiah and Mary Williams Walker. Isaiah Walker belonged to the Little Turtle Clan of the Ohio Wyandots and Mary to the Big Turtle Clan of the Canadian Wyandots from near Fort Malden. Both descended from Wyandots who figured prominently in tribal history, and both had removed with the Ohio Wyandots to Kansas in 1843. They remained there until 1874, when the removed once more, taking their large family to lands assigned the Wyandots in extreme northeastern Indian Territory. From 1890 until his death in 1927, Hen-Toh worked in the Indian Service except for brief intervals. He taught for ten years in federal Indian schools in California and Arizona and at the Seneca Industrial School near his home. After 1901 he was a clerk at various Indian agencies but spent most of his time at the Quapaw Agency, which served the Wyandots.

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."

Volume 4, No. 3 (Fall 2001) Native American Issue Cherokee Female Seminary, 1851
Native American Board School First One of the first boarding schools for Native Americans was not created by the federal government, but was founded in 1851 by the Cherokee National Council of Oklahoma. Students at the Cherokee Female Seminary took courses in Latin, French, trigonometry, political economy, and literary criticism, a curriculum that precluded any discussion of Cherokee culture or language. Pupils staged dramatic productions, held music recitals and published their own newsletter. But their graduation rate proved almost non-existent, and color and class hierarchies existed with lighter-peers referring to themselves as "progressive" Cherokees. Still this institution helped shape an acculturated Cherokee identity in which young graduates "became educators, businesswomen, physicians, stock raisers, and prominent social workers. An 1888 graduate Rachel Caroline Eaten pursued a baccalaureate and then went on for a Ph.D. in History at the University of Chicago. The author of four books on Oklahoma, two on the Cherokees, Eaten taught at several colleges including Trinity University in San Antonio where she also chaired the history department. Responding to tribal criticisms that the seminary students were ill prepared to take their places as farmers’ wives, the curriculum shifted by 1905 to include classes in "domestic science" with cooking and cleaning predominately featured. For fifty years, more than 3,000 young women had attended the Cherokee Female Seminary, and their lives there "helped to strengthen their identities as Cherokees although there were differences in opinion as to what a Cherokee really was," according to historian Devon Mihesuah. The old female seminary building still stands on the campus of Northeastern State University in Oklahoma.

PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Geography Kansas, one of the United States of America, is the central state of the Union, to which it was admitted 29 January, 1861. It has an area of 82,144 square miles, approximately 400 miles from east to west, and 200 miles from north to south. It is bounded on the north by Nebraska, on the east by Missouri, on the west by Colorado Surface The general surface of Kansas is undulating. It slopes gently from an average height of about 3650 feet above sea level at its western boundary to 850 at its eastern; the average slope is about seven feet to the mile. There is also an inclination from north to south. The mean elevation of the state is about 2000 feet. As for timber, along the waterways in the eastern part are found black hackberry, locust, cherry, and hickory. Artificial forests are found in almost every county. The state is drained by the Missouri River that forms the north-eastern boundary, and by the Kansas and Arkansas Rivers and their tributaries - all of which belong to the Mississippi system.

HISTORY
Coronado entered the limits of the present State of Kansas in 1541, and traversed it in a north-easterly direction marking the limit of the expedition with a cross. This was on the bank of a great tributary of the Mississippi River. Another large river which was crossed by the Spaniards was named Sts. Peter and Paul;

The Reservation Boarding School System
in the United States, 1870 -1928 Justification and Rationalization Day Schools vs. Boarding Schools Carlisle Indian School and Richard Henry Pratt The System Begins to Fail By way of introduction: The Reservation Boarding School System was a war in disguise. It was a war between the United States government and the children of the First People of this land. Its intention was that of any war, elimination of the enemy. The reason this war is difficult to recognize is because it was covered by the attractive patina of a concept called "Manifest Destiny." Manifest Destiny was a philosophy by which the white european invader imagined themselves as having a divine right to take possession of all land and its fruits. The reason that the Concept of Manifest Destiny was so effective was because, as it steam rolled across the land, it dragged the masses with it. The hooks that dragged these masses were many and were forged by Christianity and the Christian imprimatur. Although the fuel that energized Manifest Destiny was economic, the inspiration was in its alignment with divine will. This quote from the essay

Schools for the Gifted
The question is often asked, Are there special schools for gifted children? For highly gifted children? But there are few answers. This list attempts to be an answer, but comes with many caveats. First and foremost, schools are listed here by either their own or parent recommendations - this listing is in no way a recommendation for any specific school for a specific student. Some of these schools are public, some are private. Some test very strictly for gifted or highly gifted students; others are very specialized in their academics, and therefore draw such students without testing explicitly for the gifted. That said, at least this list is a beginning, a list of a few schools where at least some of our children can find a stimulating education, among other children like themselves. For a private school perspective, read

Kansas, Utah projects parallel
By Mike Caron Saturday, September 6, 2003 Naturalist Terry Tempest Williams believes the South Lawrence Trafficway travesty closely resembles Legacy Parkway in Utah. Gov. Mike Leavitt wants that parkway built through Great Salt Lake wetlands. Williams loves the wetlands like a member of her own family. Road-builders and developers dismiss such feelings as mere sentimentality. In her book, "Refuge" (1991) Williams describes how she felt as both her mother and her beloved wetlands faced death. Anyone doubting Native American claims that the Haskell-Baker Wetlands are a part of their family might comprehend this cultural gulf better after reading "Refuge." The Utah Department of Transportation would replace wetlands paved for Legacy Parkway with lots of land and a new nature preserve. Dismissing skepticism from environmentalists, Gov. Leavitt declared the future wetland would be even better. Terry Tempest Williams calls this "greenwashing." Former Kansas Gov. Bill Graves, now the trucking industry's chief lobbyist, kept a low profile while the Kansas Department of Transportation pressed for a trafficway that could enormously impact how interstate haulers route their big rigs through this region. Graves, a close Republican ally of then National Governor's Assn. chairman Leavitt, likely borrowed the notion to "greenwash" the 32nd Street South Lawrence Trafficway route as good for Mother Nature.

Teacher's Guide Indian Boarding Schools:
Tools of Forced Assimilation, 1870 to 1934
    As a savage, we cannot tolerate him any more than as a half-civilized parasite, wanderer or vagabond. The only alternative left is to fit him by education for civilized life. The Indian, though a simple child of nature with mental facilities dwarfed and shriveled, while groping his way for generations in the darkness of barbarism, already sees the importance of education...
    Board of Indian Commissioners, 1880. (As quoted in Prucha, 1978:194.)
Beginning in the 1870s, many Indian reform organizations sincerely believed that the "time had come for the sword to give way to the spelling book." (Trennert, 1988:3.) Flush with the success of many military victories over Indian Peoples, such reformers were committed to creating a new system of Indian education - the Indian boarding school - which would bring "the gift of civilization"to "savages" who resolutely clung to their cultural and religious traditions. The Indian boarding school was another in a long line of attempts by Euro-Americans to"civilize" and indoctrinate American Indian children. This paper will explore this historical dedication to Americanizing Indian people through the use of education by
