Variant namesHide Profile
The Tomah Indian School was authorized as a nonreservation boarding school in 1891 and opened in 1893. The Tomah Indian School was given agency duties in 1911 for the Hocak (Winnebago) Indians of Wisconsin. Agency duties were transferred to the Grand Rapids Agency in 1916, but in 1927 that agency-level jurisdiction was consolidated with the Tomah School, which regained its agency status. Between 1932 and 1935, the Tomah School took over responsiblity for the Oneida, Stockbridge, and Munsee Indians from the Keshena Agency and for the Ottawa and Potawatomi and the Saginaw, Swan Creek, and Black River Chippewa, previously connectd with the Mount Pleasant School. In 1935 the Tomah Indian School closed, and in 1949 the Tomah Agency was incorporated into the Great Lakes Consolidated Agency.
