The Chemawa Indian School, at 129 years, is the oldest continuously operating boarding school in the United States. The school dates back to the 1870's when the U. S. Government authorized a school to help integrate Native American children in the Northwest into the general population. It now serves as a high school for Native American students reaching as far as Alaska.
