The Carlisle Indian Industrial School was a federally funded boarding school in Pennsylvania that aimed to assimilate Native American children into mainstream American culture. It operated from 1879 to 1918 and implemented policies that sought to erase indigenous languages, cultures, and traditions through forced assimilation and education. The school's founder, Richard Henry Pratt, famously coined the phrase "kill the Indian, save the man" to describe its mission.
