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

The word "Cornell" is commonly found in U.S. public school names primarily due to the significant influence of Ezra Cornell, the founder of Cornell University, and the legacy of the university itself as a model of higher education. The name has become synonymous with academic excellence, innovation, and a commitment to public service, values that many schools aspire to reflect. Additionally, the presence of the university in New York State and the widespread respect for its contributions to research and education have led to its name being adopted by schools seeking to align themselves with these ideals. In some cases, schools may also bear the name to honor notable local figures or families named Cornell who contributed to the development of their communities. As a result, "Cornell" appears in school names across the country as a symbol of educational aspiration and community heritage.
