There are over 2,000 student records in this collection. Although the Institute provided assistance for primarily boys of Hispanic descent, there are records for students from Asia, Africa, and Europe. Some of the records contain more details than others. For example, one file may only contain a record of only S.A.I. credits, while other files may include a case summary, correspondence, medical records, family history, and/or probation reports.Some letters written to the Institution may concern tuition or perhaps, additional background information about the student. The letters from the Institute are mostly written by the director, Dr. Richard Silverthorn. His letters are about the student's progress at the school, general concerns, or student disciplinary action. At the end of the collection, there are miscellaneous folders containing additional unsorted student records, photographs, and printed matter. Box 22 consists of lantern slides and photographic plates.
