There are 187 Bureau-funded elementary and secondary schools on 64 reservations in 23 states, serving approximately 40,000 Indian students. Of these, 58 are BIE-operated and 129 are tribally controlled under BIE contracts or grants. The Bureau also funds or operates off-reservation boarding schools and peripheral dormitories near reservations for public school students. The BIE also serves American Indian and Alaska Native post-secondary students through higher education scholarships and support funding for tribal colleges and universities. The BIE directly operates two post-secondary institutions: the Haskell Indian Nations University (HINU) in Lawrence, Kansas, and the Southwestern Indian Polytechnic Institute (SIPI) in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Native American boarding schools and dormitories were established in the United States during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The land where the schools are located is administered by the Bureau of Indian Affairs while the facilities and there operation is under the jurisdiction of the Bureau of Indian Education. As stated in Title 25 CFR Part 32.3, BIE’s mission is to provide quality education opportunities from early childhood through life in accordance with a tribe’s needs for cultural and economic well-being, in keeping with the vast diversity of Indian tribes and Alaska Native villages as distinct cultural and governmental entities. Further, the BIE is to manifest consideration of the whole person by considering the individual's spiritual, mental, physical, and cultural aspects within his or her family and tribal or village context. The BIE school system employs thousands of teachers, administrators and support personnel, while many more work in tribal school systems.
