Synopsis

Discover a window into early 20th-century schooling at the Thomas Indian School, with a focus on student life, programs, and funding needs.
This nonfiction volume presents the Sixty-First Annual Report, detailing nine months of school operations at Iroquois, New York, including student population, staff changes, and program priorities. It highlights efforts to maintain core education while noting the temporary loss of the domestic science department and the hope to resume it alongside future plans for agriculture training.

The report also covers graduation outcomes, college and training pathways for graduates, and the growing demand for admission that outstrips capacity. It calls for legislative support to enlarge facilities, especially a new dormitory, and outlines requested appropriations to cover salary, maintenance, and construction needs. Read this edition to understand administrative challenges, funding debates, and the vision for practical education in a historic Native American school setting.

  • Reception of domestic science and the intent to reintroduce or replace it, plus plans for agriculture for boys.

  • Graduation outcomes and next steps for graduates seeking higher education or training.

  • Requests for state appropriations to fund salaries, maintenance, construction, and expansion.
