Residential school system: institutions and survival
The NCTR records the Mohawk school opening in 1831 and Gordon’s school operating from 1888 to 1996. These anchors introduce a longer history of institutions, forced assimilation, survival and redress.
Not publication-ready. This is a selected institutional period, not the full lifespan of every residential school. Other schools, later closures and day schools need their own records.
