A Catholic school on the Fort Belknap Reservation in Montana was destroyed by fire on Sunday.
The classroom, offices and cafeteria were completely destroyed, the administrator for the Gros Ventre and the Assiniboine Tribes said. The gymnasium saw extensive water and smoke damage.
About 80 to 90 students attend the school, which burned down in the 1970s.
