The goal of schooling for American Indian youths historically was to assimilate them into Euro-American culture, often at the expense of their indigenous identities and languages. Educational institutions aimed to "civilize" Native American children by teaching them Western values, religion, and vocational skills, often through harsh and punitive methods. This approach sought to eradicate traditional practices and beliefs, ultimately aiming to integrate Native Americans into mainstream American society.
