Oregon’s Chemawa Indian School has been plagued by problems such as understaffing and allegations of misspending. Is there hope for its future?

In honor of Indigenous Peoples Day, a run was held Monday to honor children who died while attending Chemawa Indian School.

By the 1920s, nearly 83% of all school-aged Indigenous children were taken from their homes to boarding schools, including some in the Pacific Northwest.
