Seneca Indian School

[1] Initially founded for Seneca, Shawnee, and Wyandotte children, in later years it had many Cherokee students.

In 1927 the school had an outbreak of measles and typhoid, and "dozens of children" died.

The school changed its admittance policy, and was opened to children of all tribes.

It became an "institutional" school for children coming from situations of hardship.

[5] A selection of school records created between 1916–1970 are held by the National Archives.
