answer is True because At the beginning of the twenty-first century, only one Indian boarding school remained in Oregon—Chemawa Indian School, located along Interstate 5 at the 45th parallel north of Salem. Chemawa, an accredited high school that serves Native American and Alaska Native students, is the oldest continuously operated off-reservation boarding school in the United States.

Answer:

True.

Step-by-step explanation:

The goal of federal policies towards Native Indian education during the 1880s was to assimilate them into the dominant American culture. For this government boarding schools were established so that children would be removed from their families. It was done so that their traditional beliefs and practices would be replaced practical American values.
