I would contact Chris Densmore, archivist at SUNY Buffalo. He has written about the Indian School.

I am trying to flesh out the structure of the reservation school system in
New York State. Each reservation had a number of schools with the Thomas
Indian School as the central institution. Operation of the schools fell
under the Department of Public Instruction which became the Department of
Education. I am looking for any information on secondary literature dealing
specifically with New York. These were on-reservation schools and were
under state control. I haven't had any luck to this point with secondary
sources. Any assistance/suggestions are appreciated.
