Preferred term

boarding schools and native languages  

Definition(s)

  • The history of American Indians/Alaska Natives and their experience with boarding schools is highly complex and has created a legacy that profoundly affects their lives today. It is widely recognized that an explicit mission of the boarding schools was to aggressively replace native languages and cultures with a dominant culture and language.
