There are 12 schools in the USA with the word midwest in the name.

The word "Midwest" is commonly found in U.S. public school names because the term refers to a significant and widely recognized region of the country. Many schools use regional identifiers in their names to reflect the communities they serve and to help foster a sense of local pride and identity. In areas considered part of the Midwest, naming a school after the region acknowledges the shared history, agricultural roots, and cultural traditions that are characteristic of this part of the United States. Such names can also emphasize the school's connection to broader regional values like hard work, community spirit, and educational achievement, which are often celebrated in the Midwest. Furthermore, using "Midwest" in a school name helps distinguish it from schools in other regions, providing a clear geographic reference point for students, families, and the community.
