The Government of Canada was responsible for funding the school, which was managed and operated by the Presbyterian Church from 1904 - 1926. The IRS’s management and operation were transferred to the United Church through the Women’s Missionary Society from 1926 – 1940 until it officially closed in January 1940. In April 1911, an operational agreement was signed between His Majesty, the King, and the Secretary of the Foreign Mission Committee of the Presbyterian Church in Canada for the management of the Ahousat Boarding School for not more than twenty-five (25) Indian pupils.

No information regarding which grades were taught at the IRS is currently available.
