An Analysis Of The Allocation Of State Support To Pupil Transportation In New Mexico, Lloyd Laverne Cockrell

Teacher Education, Educational Leadership & Policy ETDs

The Indian Child's Status In New Mexico's Public Elementary School Science Programs, Carol M. Charles

Teacher Education, Educational Leadership & Policy ETDs

Since the 1920's the conviction that Indians learned better in the public schools, where there was increased contact with the majority culture, had been growing. Recent research, involving Indian students from mission schools, federal schools, and public schools, supported this conviction. The transfer of students from Bureau of …
