![["Daniel N. Stiles writes to Senator Fred Harris requesting assistance in enrolling his adopted Eskimo daughter, Anastasia, in Sequoyah High School. Anastasia had previously been denied admission by the Muskogee Area Office, citing her need for special education classes. Stiles believes this is unjust and seeks help in securing her enrollment. Senator Harris forwards the request to the Bureau of Indian Affairs, who ultimately enrolls Anastasia in the school. Stiles expresses gratitude for the assistance."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Fred%20R.%20Harris%20Collection/CAC_CC_026_1_266_24_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Indian%20Schools,%201972/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_026_1_266_24_004_thumbnail.jpg "Correspondence Regarding Enrollment of Anastasia Stiles at Sequoyah High School")

The investigation was based on an assault on a Bureau of Indian Affairs officer by students at the school. The Assistant United States Attorney declined to prosecute the case, suggesting that the school administration handle it. A group of adults later demanded that the officer be terminated and the suspended students reinstated."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Fred%20R.%20Harris%20Collection/CAC_CC_026_1_266_23_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Scholarships,%201972/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_026_1_266_23_006_thumbnail.jpg "FBI Investigation Report on Assault Incident at Chilocco Indian School, 1971")
