Tomah Indian School

Tomah Indian Industrial School in Wisconsin was established in 1891 and opened in 1893. This boarding school was relatively small (150 students and 5 staff in 1899) and closed in 1941.

Some of the records of the Tomah Indian School are deposited at the Great Lakes Regional Archives of the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) at Chicago. These records include correspondence, records of employees, and student enrollment and attendance records. No student case files are included in the inventory of the records there.
