- Chamberlain Indian School was an American Indian boarding school in Chamberlain, South Dakota, located on the east bank of the Missouri River. It was among 25 off-reservation boarding schools opened by the federal government by 1898 in the plains region. It was administered by the Bureau of Indian Affairs and operated until 1908 After the school closed, the federal government transferred it to the Catholic Church for use as a college. The Diocese of Sioux Falls used the former boarding school as Columbus College. A new facility was established in Sioux Falls, and the college was closed here in 1923. Given economic strains, Columbus College closed in Sioux Falls in 1929. In 1927, the Catholic Priests of the Sacred Heart, an order based in Wisconsin, bought the buildings and property of the former Chamberlain School to establish the private St. Joseph's Indian School at the site. It is still in operation and serves primarily Lakota students. (en)
