The Kootenay Indian Residential School, composed of the St. Eugene's and St. Mary's mission schools, was a part of the Canadian Indian residential school system and operated in Cranbrook, British Columbia between 1890 and 1970.[1]: 354 The school, run by the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate of the Roman Catholic Church, first opened in 1890. It was replaced by an industrial school in 1912 that continued to operate until it was closed in 1970.[2] Between 1912 and 1970, over 5,000 children from across British Columbia and Alberta attended the school.[3][nb 1] The building has been home to the St. Eugene Golf Resort and Casino since 2000.[5][6]
