<div>Sulphur Springs was a Choctaw Indian community formerly existing in Ceder County of the Choctaw Nation of Indian Territory. It was located 3/4 mile south-southeast of the highway intersection of OK 3 and OK 93 in present-day Rattan, in Pushmataha County, Oklahoma. It was renamed Rattan in 1910, due to statehood in 1907, when white settlers tore down the Ceder Country Courthouse.<br />
The Sulpher Springs Indian School was a primary school run by the Choctaw Tribe and overseen by the Federal Government in Indian Territory, before statehood. Primary schools like these were usually located in full-blood communities far removed from white civilization. At Sulpher Springs, students were taught in Chickasaw language., but were given lessons from books supplied by the Federal Gov, reportedly "-such books as were used in the States twenty-five years ago." Pupils enrolled is reported as 35 in The Report of the US Indian Inspector for the Indian Territory of 1899.</div>162.158.69.186
