Records include daily school attendance registers from the elementary and secondary school grades at St. Patrick's Separate School in Yellowknife (1953-1970) and from Sir John Franklin High School (1959-1960, 1961-1963, 1964-1965) in Yellowknife. The information recorded in the registers includes the names of pupils, community of origin, disc, treaty or band numbers, attendance records and the names of the parents. The record of attendance is divided between "Eskimo" (Inuit), "Indian" (Treaty Indians, i.e. Indigenous children registered under the Indian Act) and "Other" (including white children, Dene and Métis children who were not registered under the Indian Act, and any children of other ethnicities).
The files were part of the Central Registry and include correspondence, publications, policies and procedures relating to school programs, as well as files about curriculum development, teacher evaluations, conferences and school services.
