The Institute of Southern Plains (ISP) in Hammon, Oklahoma is a school for Indian students that was established in response to discrimination and mistreatment of Indian students in the public school. The ISP has seen an increase in enrollment from last year, with 85 students currently enrolled in preschool through 12th grade. The school is funded by the BIA, JOM, Ford Foundation, Hearst Foundation, HEW, and the Swedish American Foundation, totaling $202,774 for FY 1977. The ISP is managed by a six member Board, five of whom are selected by the parents and one by the Cheyenne-Arapaho tribes of Oklahoma.
