No real surprise that there are school graveyards in the US too.
This Indian boarding school was one of the first that came up in my Google search
And this article talks of looking into other US boarding schools. Though it sounds like the US boarding schools closed in the 1960s.
This article talks about how the some graveyards in Canada were treated.
But I also saw a Wikipedia article about a school in Florida that had a cemetery of mostly black children. And that school managed to make it to the 2000s, though the deaths may have stopped earlier.

I agree too, but what I point out is that logic and being consistent is not a property of the ones trying to be lukewarm about genocide.
They can make points like the ones you are properly dissecting, and they still come back denying what was found or reported too. Like a typical lukewarmer (of evolution, climate change, etc) that wants to have it both ways.
And when confronted with information that goes against what they claim, they play the “opponents are trying to hide the truth” card.
The U.S. schools technically still exist, actually on a small level. The history of these schools in the United States had a few watersheds. The 1928 Meriam Report highlighted a lot of serious failures of the schools, and lead to some reforms that altered their structure over the next several decades (usually for the better.) There was another round of investigations and reflection in the 1970s, which culminated in the legal ending of compulsory placement in the schools, there also was a move towards establishing community schools in the reservations around this time that lead to enrollment in the boarding schools declining significantly after the 1970s. However there are still a few operating boarding schools even today. There were 73 Federally funded schools still in operation in 2020, with 15 of them boarding schools. Some of the historic boarding schools also still operate under a different format. Several have become colleges serving the Native American community, some of the buildings and schools transferred over to the “regular” school system of the states they were in, and stopped operating as Indian schools.
For example the Marty Indian School in South Dakota About - Marty Indian School (k12.sd.us) still operates as a residential Indian boarding school. However in the 1970s control of the school was transferred to the Sioux nation, and while they have maintained the involvement of Catholic clergy in running portions of the school, the Sioux school boar d has ultimate control of the facility. It still maintains a residential program.
