Native Americans in the School System: Family, Community, and Academic Achievement - Paperback

Focusing on the experiences of the Northern Cheyenne nation, she analyses historical, ethnographic, and quantitative data. This volume will be of use to policy makers, instructors of comparative education, Native American studies, sociology, and anthropology.
