There are 19 schools in the USA with the word iroquois in the name.
The word "Iroquois" is commonly found in U.S. public school names because it reflects the historical and cultural significance of the Iroquois Confederacy, a group of Indigenous nations that played a major role in the early history of North America. Many schools are located in regions where the Iroquois, also known as the Haudenosaunee, originally lived and influenced the land and its people. Naming schools after the Iroquois is a way to recognize and honor the contributions and legacy of these Native American nations, particularly their impact on democratic governance and local heritage. This naming practice also provides educational opportunities for students to learn about Indigenous history and the diverse cultures that have shaped their communities.
