There are 19 schools in the USA with the word escuela in the name.

The word "escuela," which means "school" in Spanish, is commonly found in U.S. public school names due to the significant presence of Spanish-speaking communities across the country, especially in states with historical and geographic connections to Latin America. Many areas in the United States, such as California, Texas, Arizona, and New Mexico, have deep roots in Spanish and Mexican heritage, which is reflected in the language used for place names and institutions. Incorporating "escuela" into school names serves to acknowledge and honor the cultural and linguistic backgrounds of these communities, fostering a sense of belonging among Spanish-speaking students and families. Additionally, schools that adopt bilingual or dual-language programs often use "escuela" to communicate their commitment to providing education in both English and Spanish, supporting educational equity and multicultural understanding. By using this term, schools help bridge cultural divides and create inclusive learning environments for diverse student populations.
