.Central Task for this essay: The Assiniboia school, founded in Winnipeg in 1958/9 was the first residential *high school* in Manitoba. By comparing and contrasting the Assiniboia school experience with the broader experience of residential schooling, respond to the following question: To what extent was the Assiniboia School unique, to what extent was it a reflection of the general experience of residential schooling, and what does its particular history add to the broader history of residential schooling?* [Hint: a good thesis statement – at the end of your general introduction – should provide a *brief* answer to this central question, preferable in one sentence. Use a quick list if useful and then have the essay unfold in the same order as the list.] [*Hint 2: Concluding simply “well the schools weren’t that bad” is not a *thoughtful* reflection on the totality of these materials. Try to “dig deeper” than that.]
