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

The word "Juniata" is commonly found in U.S. public school names due to its deep historical and geographical roots, particularly in the state of Pennsylvania. The name originates from the Juniata River, one of Pennsylvania's major waterways, which was itself named after the Onojutta-Haga, an Indigenous group who lived along its banks. Over time, townships, counties, and regions adopted the name, reflecting the area's heritage and significance in local history. Public schools in these communities often use "Juniata" in their names to honor local geography and acknowledge the cultural legacy of both early Native American inhabitants and later settlers. This practice helps foster a sense of regional identity and pride among students and residents.
