In 1950 a new day school was opened on the reserve, and at this point records began referring to schools No. 1 and No. 2. The No. 2 school was likely called "Hillside School." In 1954 a third school opened in the area, across the Assiniboine River. Government records indicate that the two schools affiliated with The United Church closed in 1963, and 1979. Further research is required to confirm the closure dates of the school(s), more information about the operation and general history of the school(s).

White Bear Day School
Entidade coletiva · October 28, 1902-September 1, 1987

White Bear Day School was located at the east end of the Moose Mountains, nine miles north of Carlyle, Saskatchewan. It was operated by The Presbyterian Church in Canada, and after 1925 The United Church of Canada. In 1901 it was reported that the bands Pheasant Rump No. 68, Striped Blanket No. 69 and White Bear's No. 70 were amalgamated and living at White Bear Reserve. There was no Day School on the reserve, and some children were being sent to the nearby Qu'Appelle Residential School. By 1902 Department of Indian Affairs records indicate a day school was being built. White Bear’s Day School opened on October 28, 1902, under the first-time teacher, Miss Edith McDonald, and supervised by Mr. Dodds, the Presbyterian missionary. In 1907 it was reported that some children were being boarded by community members so they could attend the school. In 1911, correspondence notes that there “were formerly two Reserves, fifteen miles apart, but one of these was sold and the Indians were gathered upon the other.” This may explain why attendance increased after 1911. By 1912, the school had a “field matron” who was responsible for preparing a mid-day meal for the children and also taught domestic science.” By 1929, the Women’s Missionary Society of The United Church of Canada was responsible for providing a teacher to the day school. By the 1940s, there were almost 35 children in six grades. In 1945 the teacher was receiving a salary paid directly from the Department of Indian Affairs, suggesting the day school teachers were now Department employees. By the 1950s, it appears that school attendance had grown to a point where two teachers were needed. In September 1955, a new school building was opened. In 1957 a new residence was built near the school, and in 1958 teachers described the school was crowded. Attendance figures for this period show 60 pupils in grades one to eight, while another 40 children were taken to the composite school in Carlyle. Government records suggest the school was open until 1987. Further research is required to learn more about its general history and operation.
