The Government Boarding School at Lac du Flambeau in Lac du Flambeau, Wisconsin was a school where Native American children of the Ojibwe, Potowatomi and Odawa peoples were taught mainstream American culture from 1895 to 1932. It served grades 1-8, teaching both academic and practical subjects, intended to give children skills needed for their rural societies.

  • The Government Boarding School at Lac du Flambeau in Lac du Flambeau, Wisconsin was a school where Native American children of the Ojibwe, Potowatomi and Odawa peoples were taught mainstream American culture from 1895 to 1932. It served grades 1-8, teaching both academic and practical subjects, intended to give children skills needed for their rural societies. The school was converted in 1932 to a day school, serving only Ojibwe children and those nearby of other tribes. After 1975 and passage of national legislation for self-determination, the Ojibwe tribe at Lac du Flambeau took over control of the school. They now use the boys' dormitory for offices for historic preservation, Ojibwe language, and cultural activities. The boys' dormitory is one of the remaining structures of what was a large multi-building complex on 300 acres. It had a variety of support buildings and, when a boarding school, raised its own produce and livestock. The school complex was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2005 as one of the historic sites in Vilas County. (en)
