The Old Leupp Boarding School was established by the U. S. Federal Government to educate Navajo children from 1909 to 1942. After the start of World War II in 1943, the U.S. War Department reutilized the school as the Leupp Citizen Isolation Center. Nearly all buildings and structures were razed to the ground in the 1960's.
