There are 17 schools in the USA with the word chippewa in the name.

The word "Chippewa" is commonly found in U.S. public school names because it refers to the Chippewa, or Ojibwe, people, who are one of the largest Native American tribes in North America. Their historical presence in regions such as the Great Lakes, Upper Midwest, and parts of Canada has left a lasting impact on local geography and place names. Many schools choose names that reflect the heritage and history of the area, both to honor the original inhabitants and to promote awareness of the region's cultural roots among students. Using Indigenous names like Chippewa fosters a sense of local identity and encourages educational opportunities to learn about Native American history and contributions within the community.
