There are 11 schools in the USA with the word cayuga in the name.

The word "Cayuga" is commonly found in U.S. public school names due to its historical and geographic significance, particularly in the northeastern United States. "Cayuga" originates from the Cayuga Nation, one of the six nations of the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois Confederacy), whose ancestral lands are in what is now central New York. The name also corresponds to natural landmarks such as Cayuga Lake and Cayuga County, both prominent features in New York State. Schools in the region often adopt the name to reflect local history, honor Indigenous heritage, and recognize the lasting influence of the Cayuga people. By using the name, educational institutions aim to foster a sense of community identity and raise awareness of the area's cultural legacy.
