  • HARD LESSONS in AMERICA Henry Sicade’S History of Puyallup Indian School, 1860 to 1920 Edited and with an Introduction by Cary C
    WashingtonHistory.org HARD LESSONS IN AMERICA Henry Sicade’s History of Puyallup Indian School, 1860 to 1920 Edited and with an Introduction by Cary C. Collins Columbia The Magazine of Northwest History, Winter 2000-01: Vol. 14, No. 4 For 60 years Puyallup Indian School provided the native peoples of Puget Sound, western Washington, and the Pacific Northwest with singular opportunities in education. During that period, American attempts to assimilate the nation's Indian population reached their bare-knuckled zenith. The school thus experienced a shifting identity but an unshakable purpose. Situated on the Puyallup Indian Reservation in Tacoma and operated under the paternal hand of the United States government, the institution opened as a day school in 1860. Subsequent expansions, the first in 1873 and another in 1898, reflected ongoing changes in the school's status to reservation boarding school and then off-reservation boarding school. Through each manifestation, however, the objective remained the same: to saturate Indian children in the culture and ideals of the dominant American society. Puyallup Indian School embodied a six-decade experiment in American policies of forced assimilation. Henry Sicade (1866-1938) knew those policies intimately. A great-nephew of Chief Leschi of the Nisqually tribe and a grandson of Chief Stann of the Puyallup tribe, he enrolled in Puyallup Day School in January 1873, just a month shy of his seventh birthday. He continued as a student for over seven years—until February 1880—before transferring to a new off-reservation boarding school in Forest Grove, Oregon. A year at Forest Grove Indian School (now Chemawa Indian School in Salem) preceded another three at adjacent Pacific University, academic experiences that he later applied to optimal effect.

    Cangre£(£f of tf)e Winittij States Masljington, 20C 20510 July 18,2019 The Honorable Tara Sweeney Assistant Secretary, Indian Affairs U.S. Department of the Interior Mail Stop 3648 1849 C Street NW Washington D.C. 20240 Dear Assistant Secretary Sweeney, On July 10,2019, we met with Bureau of Indian Education(BIE) Director Tony Dearman. During that meeting, we discussed our continued efforts to address the concerns about abuse, fraud, and mismanagement at Chemawa Indian School in Salem, Oregon. We have sought to make sure that all students receive an academically rigorous and culturally informed education, are safe at school, and have access to health care and mental health care services. Based on our conversations with Director Dearman, we write to request an updated map of the campus and clarification about the jurisdiction of every agency and law enforcement authority responsible for each part of the campus. We have held several meetings at Chemawa Indian School (Chemawa) with Director Dearman, Chemawa administrators, and tribal leaders from the federally recognized tribes in Oregon. The House Committee on Natural Resources held an oversight hearing to investigate the health and safety risks of Native children at BIE boarding schools. In addition, our offices have continued to engage in conversations with stakeholders regarding the future of Chemawa. However, the lack of certain basic information makes it difficult to have a productive conversation about how to address the challenges the school faces. One piece of information that we seek is a current map of the school's areas and boundaries. The 1966 Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) map is not accurate.

Historians have neglected post-WWII boarding school stories, yet both the historical continuities and changes in boarding school life are significant. Using the student newspaper, the Chemawa American, I argue that during the 1960s, Chemawa continued to encourage Christianity, relegate heritage to safety zones, and rely on student labor to sustain the school.
