There are 20 schools in the USA with the word midtown in the name.

The word "midtown" is commonly found in U.S. public school names because it refers to the central or middle area of a city or town, which is often where schools were established to serve a broad and diverse community. Historically, many towns and cities grew outward from a central hub, and naming a school "Midtown" signified its location as accessible and central to various neighborhoods. Geographically, a school located in the "midtown" area may serve as a convenient meeting place for students from multiple districts, fostering inclusivity and community. Additionally, the use of "midtown" in school names reflects a cultural emphasis on centrality and shared public spaces, which are important values in American educational philosophy. By identifying a school with the "midtown" label, communities often signal both the practical function and the symbolic role of the school as a core institution in civic life.
