Chilocco Indian School's Tumultuous History in Oklahoma
Chilocco Indian School, founded 1882 in Indian Territory, faced years of pushback and investigations from the Bureau of Indian Affairs. The campus endured leadership changes after a 1968-69 review, resembled by NIYC protests, but retained a large staff, extensive facilities, and a joint four-school consortium for national instruction and student opportunities.
