Assumption Indian Residential School (IRS) was located on the south end of the Hay Lake reserve in northwest Alberta. The residential school operated from 1951 - 1974 (23 years) under the Roman Catholic administration.
Following the opening of a day school at the nearby community of Habay in 1962, the Assumption school increasingly served as a residence for students attending the day school.
In 1968, the school was turned into a day school, while continuing to provide boarding services for students who did not live in the community.
In 1969, the federal government took over the operation of the residence, which was closed in 1974.
