Muskowekwan Residential School

​In 1886 the Roman Catholic day school on the Muscowequan Reserve in what is now Saskatchewan was enlarged to allow it to take in boarding students. The school was the subject of a number of negative Indian Affairs inspection reports in the 1920s. In 1923 a nurse said the building was not in fit shape and the diet served to the students was inadequate, lacking in milk and vegetables. The federal government took over administration of the school in 1969. From 1981 the school and residence was managed by the Muskowekwan Education Centre. It closed in 1997.

Gordon Residential School  

​The Anglican Church of Canada established a day school on Gordon’s Reserve just north of Regina, in 1876. In 1888, it was expanded to provide housing to students attending the school. In 1929 the school was destroyed by fire. It was rebuilt, but problems with water supply and maintenance led to its being closed for much of the time between 1947 and 1953. In 1941 a boy, who was fearful of discipline at the school, died of exposure after running away. In 1993 a former employee plead guilty to charges of sexual assaulting students at the Gordon’s school and residence from 19681984. The residence was closed in 1996.
