      History

      Cecilia Jeffrey Residential School was initially located on the west side of Shoal Lake, Ontario, near the Manitoba border and just east of Shoal Lake Reserve No. 40. It operated at this site from 1901-1929. The second site was located on land surrounding Round Lake, 3 miles from the town of Kenora where it operated until 1976. The school was funded by the Government of Canada and operated by the Foreign Mission Committee of the Presbyterian Church in Canada until 1969 when management and operation of the school was transferred to the federal government.
