There are 13 schools in the USA with the word hundred in the name.

The word "hundred" is commonly found in U.S. public school names due to its historical and geographic origins dating back to colonial times. In several states, particularly in the Mid-Atlantic region, "hundred" was used as a term for administrative land divisions, similar to townships, that organized communities for purposes such as taxation, local government, and schooling. As a result, schools established within these land divisions often adopted the name "hundred" to reflect their service to that specific geographic area. Over time, as communities grew and evolved, the term remained a part of local identity, preserved in the names of public institutions like schools. This naming tradition highlights the influence of early colonial administrative practices on modern American place names and institutions.
