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

The word "Cuba" appears in the names of many U.S. public schools due to the historical and geographic influence of towns and cities named Cuba across the country. In the 19th and early 20th centuries, it was common for American settlers to name new towns after foreign countries as a way to express fascination with global events or to honor significant places, and "Cuba" was a well-known name because of its proximity and historical connections to the United States. These connections were further deepened through events like the Spanish-American War, which heightened American public awareness of Cuba. As these towns developed, their local schools were often named after the community itself, leading to many schools carrying the name "Cuba" as a reflection of their location. Over time, these school names have become part of the local identity, serving as a reminder of broader cultural and historical ties.
