There are 12 schools in the USA with the word comanche in the name.

The word "Comanche" is commonly found in U.S. public school names due to the historical and cultural significance of the Comanche people in American history. The Comanche were a prominent Indigenous tribe whose territory once stretched across large parts of present-day Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, and Colorado. As a result, many schools in these regions bear the name to honor and acknowledge the tribe's influence and heritage in shaping local history. Incorporating "Comanche" in school names serves as a reminder of the area's Native American roots and encourages students and communities to recognize the diverse cultural backgrounds that are part of their local and national heritage. This naming practice can also be seen as an educational opportunity for students to learn about the history and contributions of the Comanche people and other Indigenous groups within the United States.
