History
The school was established in 1976 to push Native Americans into a public school and lower dropout rates in Native Americans in Buffalo.[2]
The school has hosted many Native American cultural celebrations.[3]
During it's time open, the school established playgrounds and athletic fields for after school hours.[4]
