There are 22 schools in the USA with the word annex in the name.

The word "annex" is commonly found in U.S. public school names due to the historical and geographic expansion of school districts as communities have grown. Often, "annex" indicates a supplemental or additional building that was established to accommodate increasing student populations when the original school facilities became too small or suffered from overcrowding. In many cases, annexes served as temporary solutions, offering extra classroom space while the main school awaited renovation or construction of larger buildings. The use of "annex" in a school name reflects a practical response to demographic and urban changes, emphasizing adaptability within the education system to meet the needs of growing or shifting neighborhoods. Over time, some annexes have developed distinct identities, but their names continue to signal their roots as extensions of a main educational institution.
