The international arm of the Independent Schools Information Service (Isis) believes the American market is yet to be tapped, with many families unaware of what schooling is available in the UK. Representatives from 14 boarding schools in England will travel to Washington DC later this month to show off their wares at a conference of the Association of Boarding Schools. We have the added bonus of our heritage, traditions and quality of lifestyle Paul High, Isis International Liz Pangu, a consultant for Isis International, said many Americans have an outdated view of British schools. "They tend to think of cold showers and early morning runs," she said. "But we think studying in our schools can offer an excellent cultural experience - even if it's just for a year or two." She admitted it would be difficult to gauge the success of the trip, but said "the time was right to tell the American public there was an alternative".

Global Fund to Fight Deadly Diseases 'Gay-straight' clubs in schools anger foes By Christina Bellantoni THE WASHINGTON TIMES Students in Virginia, Maryland and the District have formed dozens of such school clubs in an attempt to foster tolerance. "They are teaching acceptance and that it's OK to be a homosexual and to practice homosexual sex acts," said John Elledge chairman of the Republican Party of Harrisonburg, Va. "I'm all for just getting along, but I'm not at all for having a sexually oriented club in our high school." Students in Prince William County's C.D. Hylton High School want to form a Gay-Straight Alliance after-school club, and have a petition on the Internet. They claim the club will be a "safe environment" in which students can talk about homosexual issues in school and that they will discuss "coming out" and bullying by other students. Some clubs are being formed at schools that have even younger students.

Sidebar: INDIAN BOARDING SCHOOLS 1879/1999 September 21, 1999 Contact Eliza Schmidkunz (541) 346-5083 or John R. Crosiar 346-3135 NOTE TO EDITORS : For information about "They Sacrificed for Our Survival," an exhibit about the Indian boarding school experience opening Sept. 28 at the UO Museum of Natural History, see the story, "Indian Boarding School Exhibit Opens at Natural History Museum Sept. 28." The first exclusively Indian federal boarding school was opened in Carlisle, Pa., in 1879. Its mission: to civilize Native Americans, who were thought to be primitive and "slow." Its director, army Capt. Richard H. Pratt, often said about his students, "Kill the Indian in them and save the man." Although many administrators were sympathetic to their students, they did not intend to educate future leaders, much less include Native American skills, beliefs and attitudes in their educational model. The United States government and the schools believed Indians were best suited for manual work and should have low expectations in a white world. So, early school programs emphasized farm labor, housekeeping, uniformity and military discipline. In the 1800s, children often were kidnapped and taken to school by force. As public opinion and policy gradually changed, Indian parents became more willing to send their children to school in order to give them marketable skills and a chance to get along in white America.

Resources Magazine Resources Social Capitalists The SEED Foundation Mission Large numbers of urban children lack the quality schools and safe, structured home environments necessary for success in school and life. The SEED Foundation establishes urban public boarding schools that prepare children, both academically and socially, for success in college and in the professional world beyond. The SEED Foundation, co-founded by Eric Adler and Rajiv Vinnakota, opened its first school, The SEED School of Washington, D.C., in 1998. The SEED School provides an intensive boarding education to 310 urban children, in grades seven through 12, whose challenging circumstances might otherwise prevent them from fulfilling their academic and social potential. The School is a financially sustainable institution and serves as a national model. Many urban children have little hope of attaining college and long-term success. Even when the public day school system offers a strong academic program, these students may not succeed because key environmental factors work against them. Drugs, violence, crime and teen pregnancy take a human toll on students in urban areas. Unfortunately, the support structures that might otherwise overcome these problems may be limited or absent. Families are stretched thin, or even broken; peer systems are sometimes part of the problem. Under these circumstances, students either don't graduate, or they graduate without the skills they need. Many students and families desperately want an alternative that provides the infrastructure, vision and resources needed to help students overcome these obstacles.

53. American Indians Describe School Beatings Other boarding school officials approved of the beatings. who attended boarding schools in washington and Oregon in the 1920s and 30s. http://www.nospank.net/n-e36.htm

The Associated Press , April 24, 1999 American Indians Describe School Beatings By Matt Kelley WAHPETON, N.D. (AP) It was the beating she didn't get that still haunts Joyce Burr. She and several friends were hiding from a dormitory matron in the coat room of the Wahpeton Indian School. They peeked from behind the coats as the enraged matron, herself an Indian, caught up with an older Chippewa girl named Judy Karvonen. ``That's the worst beating I've ever seen. That woman used coat hangers and everything on her,'' said Burr, a Turtle Mountain Chippewa/Oglala Sioux. ``You can imagine not trying to move, trying not to make a sound, when you're seeing that.'' Burr was just one of thousands of American Indian children sent to boarding schools run by the government or by Christian denominations. The coat room beating was just one of thousands administered in the name of keeping order, of crushing Indian identity, of immersing Indian children in white American society. Today, about 10,000 Indian children are enrolled in the schools, though their mission has changed. Burr herself had suffered through plenty of thrashings at Wahpeton, where she lived from 1952 to 1959. Dormitory workers beat her for climbing trees, or for not making her bed quickly enough.

The Associated Press , April 24, 1999 Abuse in American Indian Boarding Schools Reflections of former students: ABUSE ``There was one fella (a dorm attendant) that was having mental health problems, and they sent him to the school to get him out of the way. Anyway, he would have these psychotic episodes and hear voices, and he would just come out of his room in the middle of the night and randomly pick people out and whip them severely for no reason.'' Peter Campbell, Colville/Coeur d'Alene, who attended two Roman Catholic boarding schools in Washington and Idaho in the 1950s. ``Our (dorm) matron, she would spank us real hard on the rear, put us over this old-fashioned laundry tub, and just spank the hell out of us. It got to the point where it didn't bother us, so she would use her high heels. She would start slapping your face, hitting us until we cried. We learned to start crying so she would stop. Someday I'd like to confront her and talk to her about what she did to us.'' Ethel Sales, Navajo, who attended a Christian Reformed mission school in Rehobeth, N.M.

When you pay your taxes, you are paying for your child's education and the education of other children in your community. Private schools cost money. Private schools do not receive tax revenues, but instead are funded through tuition, fundraising, donations and private grants. According to the National Association of Independent Schools, the median tuition for private day schools in the United States is close to $12,000 for grades 1 to 3, $13,000 for grades 6 to 8 and $15,000 for grades 9 to 12. The median tuition for boarding schools is $12,000 for grades 1 to 3, $27,000 for grades 6 to 9, and $28,000 for grades 9 to 12. Parochial schools generally charge somewhat less.

It's free! Save it. For most of the last century, children who have been removed from their families have been placed in foster care. Today, there are about 600,000 such children, and the system is beset by problemsa shortage of competent staff, children who spend much of their youth bouncing around from one family to another, and poor outcomes (high rates of teen pregnancy, for instance). And the system is overburdened. Caseloads have doubled over the last 20 years (largely as a result of the crack epidemic), while the number of foster families has declined. Faced with these challenges, some reformers propose making greater use of boarding schools. Such institutions exist across the nationlike Boys Town in Nebraska, Philadelphia's Girard College, and the Piney Woods School in Mississippiand many have good track records in preparing disadvantaged children for college and future careers. But the social services people want no part of that, as Newt Gingrich discovered in 1994 when he spoke out on the subject. Society's sole objective should be to unite children with their families, they argue.
