Abuse Charges Hit Reservation Church-Run Schools Cited In Wide-Ranging Lawsuit
By Sharon Waxman, Washington Post

June 2, 2003 ROSEBUD RESERVATION, S.D. The day the Rev. Kenneth Walleman came to the front door, Lloyd "Sonny" One Star went to get his gun. "I couldn't keep my composure. I kept shaking," said One Star, 46, a leader of the Sioux tribe on this reservation. "I was going to kill him." Walleman was a former administrator at St. Francis Mission, the Jesuit boarding school One Star had attended through his youth a priest, One Star says now, who sexually abused him for years. Walleman fled before he could state his business that day a few years ago, but he may yet face the wrath of Sonny One Star and that of other former students. After years of holding their silence, hundreds of Native Americans are giving accounts of physical and sexual abuse at the hands of the priests and nuns who ran a dozen missionary boarding schools across South Dakota through most of the 20th century. Allegations of priestly sexual abuse in parishes have rocked the Catholic Church over the past year. But what the former students say occurred at reservation schools into the 1970s was more systemic: They say that physical abuse was a routine part of school discipline; that sexual abuse was commonplace; and that both forms of abuse were committed against children in the round-the-clock, unsupervised care of school staff members.

School Sisters of Notre Dame
A religious community devoted to education. In the United Sates they have conducted parish schools and orphanages in numerous archdioceses and dioceses; they have also operated schools and an orphanage in the Diocese of Hamilton, Canada; an Indian school at Harbor Springs, Michigan; a school for black children at Annapolis; and a deaf-mute institute in Louisiana. Their principal boarding schools are: Baltimore, Maryland; Fort Lee, New Jersey; Quincy, Illinois; Longwood, Chicago; Prairie Du Chien, Wisconsin. Of their day and high schools the most prominent are at Baltimore, Quincy, Longwood and Chatawa, Mississippi. On 15 December, 1850, the motherhouse was transferred to Milwaukee, with Mother Mary Caroline Friess as vicar-general of the sisters in America. With money donated by King Louis I of Bavaria, a house was bought; this was absorbed later by Notre Dame Convent on St. Mary's Hill. On 2 January, 1851, St. Mary's parish school was opened and St. Mary's Institute for boarding and day pupils soon afterwards. On 31 July, 1876, owing to its growth and extension, the congregation was divided into two provinces; the Western, with motherhouse at Milwaukee; and the Eastern with motherhouse at Baltimore. A second division of the Western province became necessary, and on 19 March, 1895, the Southern province was formed, with its motherhouse in St. Louis. Training of Members SR. MARY JOSEPHINE

http://www.edgertonwisconsin.com/pages/business.html
Choosing a location for your business takes a lot of thought. When we developed the Edgerton Business Park, we focused on two major issues: easy accessibility and the highest quality site package on the market.
Our sites are fully improved, pre-graded, and through a rapid approval process, you'll be able to count on your construction schedule moving quickly.
Edgerton Business Park is a partnership development between the City of Edgerton and MLG Limited Partnership, a part of MLG, a full-service real estate consortium. The advantages to living and working in a community such as Edgerton, Wisconsin are recognized with increasing frequency by major businesses across the country. For example, consider the following comparisons between Edgerton and Chicago: Electricity. Alliant Energy rates are at least 25% lower than Commonwealth Edison's. Rental costs for an industrial building in Edgerton average only $2.00 per square foot. The average in Chicago is $3.75 per square foot. Workmen's' compensation costs in Wisconsin are far lower and the system is much fairer to the employer than in Illinois. Pollution.

    Kellogg, Minnie
    (1880-c. 1949) Oneida activist and writer Laura Minnie Cornelius Kellogg was born on the Oneida Reservation near Green Bay, Wisconsin, the daughter of Adam Poe Cornelius and Celicia Bread Cornelius, farmers. A descendant of central New York State Oneida Indians who followed an Indian missionary, the Reverend Eleazar Williams, into the Wisconsin territory in 1822, she was a baptized member of the Episcopal Church of the Holy Apostles. Included in her prominent lineage were Daniel Bread, a major nineteenth-century Oneida chief in New York and Wisconsin who was known for his powerful oratorical skills, and Skenandore, the last of the New York Oneida chiefs, who was one of the tribe's leaders during its migration to Wisconsin. Unlike many of her contemporaries, Kellogg avoided attending distant Indian boarding schools. She was educated in the 1890s at Grafton Hall, an Episcopal boarding school largely for non-Indians located at Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. In the first decade of the twentieth century, she studied at Barnard College, Cornell University, the New York School of Philanthropy (later the Columbia University School of Social Work), Stanford University, and the University of Wisconsin, although she never received degrees from any of these institutions. One of the best Indian linguists of her generation, Kellogg had a superior command of Oneida and Mohawk as well as English. But she gained national attention through her spellbinding oratory and her eloquent writing skills. As a public speaker, she told of the eighteenth-century League of the Iroquois, the lessons and wisdom of Indian elders, and the overriding concerns of the Iroquois to win back their lands, which she insisted had been taken fraudulently by New York State and by land speculators. She was equally accomplished with a pen, devoting herself to writing on behalf of Progressive Era reform causes such as women's rights as well as writing political tracts on Indian issues; she also wrote plays and short stories. Her writings include

    Research The SEED Foundation is committed not only to the operational and financial sustainability of The SEED School of Washington, D.C., but also to the research and development of innovative educational opportunities for students throughout the country. Primary Market Research: Prior to the establishment of The SEED School of Washington, D.C., the Foundation interviewed educators, support agencies, foundations, juvenile justice system officers, social service providers, community leaders and parents across the country. These interviews detailed the needs of the target student population, the successes and failures of existing programs, the cost of operating a successful program and other aspects of developing and running a successful school. Foundation staff continue to meet with and interview stakeholders on an ongoing basis to stay abreast of current trends and issues affecting urban education. The SEED Boarding Model Longitudinal Study: The Foundation is coordinating a four-year study of the effectiveness of The SEED Public Charter School's boarding program. In 1998, SEED received a multi-year grant from the Ford Foundation and an anonymous donor to support an independent study of the boarding program and its effect upon the School's students, parents and faculty. The study tracks the academic, social and behavioral development of both SEED students and a control group of other District of Columbia students. In addition, the study assesses parental and community involvement. The study has verified decreased risk behaviors and increased self-esteem for SEED students; for example, the incidence of smoking for 8th graders is 70% in D.C. Public Schools, but only 3% at SEED. Prior year studies have been completed and Chapin Hall is currently conducting a continuing study.

    For more than a century, from the late 1870s to the early 1970s, the U.S. government forcibly took thousands of Native American children from reservations and sent them to federal or religious boarding schools. At that time, supporters of the policy said these institutions would help Indians assimilate into mainstream American society, while later critics charged that the schools tried to eradicate the Indian culture by suppressing traditional languages and customs. Now, there's a new criticism of the system: a multi-billion dollar lawsuit accusing the government of neglecting its treaty-bound duty to protect tribes from "bad men among the whites" during the boarding school era. Attorneys said many Indian students were physically, mentally, or sexually abused by staff. The first three schools named in the suit are Catholic, compounding the problems the Church already faces from last year's barrage of abuse allegations against priests. At his home near Wagner, South Dakota, Sherwin Zephier organizes his art supplies and papers. The Yankton Sioux tribal member teaches art in the nearby town of Marty. The tribal school sits across from the former campus of a Catholic boarding school called St. Paul's, which operated until 1976, when the property was transferred to the tribe. Mr. Zephier was a student there from 1963 to 1975, and recalls how he and his peers were disciplined by the nuns and priests. He said, "We were beaten frequently, not just spanked. With boards, whips, leather straps like the shaving blade sharpeners, real thick leather. Sometimes two were put together to thicken it, to increase pain or impact of it. For some of us, when we were whipped, it broke skin, left scars."

    Pine Ridge Pottery

    The following article appeared the WPA Press Vol. 8 , April 2001
    By Kari Kenefick Peter Flaherty spoke at the February 13, 2001 WPA meeting on Pine Ridge Pottery. Peter said that he became interested in Pine Ridge Pottery through direct and indirect means. Peter met a Fulper dealer that had a piece with the milky glaze, which he found attractive and unusual. Peter gave a very interesting presentation. The following was gleaned from his notes as well as the sources noted at the end of this article. The Pine Ridge Indian reservation, established in 1890, is located in southwestern South Dakota. In the 1930s the Work Progress Association (WPA) setup a boarding school on the reservations, the goal being to remove children from their homes and place them in school where they spoke only English. There is no tradition of pottery amongst the Lakota Sioux Indians of the Great Plains - the Sioux were a nomadic group that followed the bison herds and as such were light travelers. The Sioux are reported to more frequently have used baskets than pottery, baskets being far lighter to transport. The pottery that they did travel with was not decorative, but rather very functional. Thus Pine Ridge Pottery might be considered a white man's medium decorated by Native Americans. The WPA project brought white instructors to the boarding school, to provide pottery for home use and to help the Indians sustain themselves as craftspeople. Bruce Doyle was hired in 1937 to run the ceramics program in the high school. Doyle, a North Dakota native, had studied in North Dakota, probably at UND, where he connected with Margaret Cable. In addition Peter Flaherty told us that Doyle had studied at UCLA, the University of Washington, the University of Oregon and the UW-Milwaukee. In his 1988 book "Art Pottery of the Midwest", Marion Nelson reported that Doyle's son said his father studied pottery in Madison, Wisconsin. Doyle is credited with making molds at the Pine Ridge Reservation and with formulating glazes suitable to local clays.

Often, such schools are highly selective, accepting only a very small percentage of applicants. Such schools often have very high admissions fees which are used to attract and hire the best teachers, and also used to provide enriched learning environments and services such as libraries, science laboratories, and computers. Graduates of preparatory schools are often actively sought by colleges due to the colleges' confidence that the students will be better educated.
