There are 14 schools in the USA with the word mohave in the name.

The word "Mohave" is commonly found in U.S. public school names due to its strong historical and geographic significance, particularly in the southwestern region of the country. The name originates from the Mohave (or Mojave) people, an Indigenous group native to the Mojave Desert, which spans parts of California, Arizona, and Nevada. Using the word "Mohave" in school names honors the region's cultural heritage and acknowledges the area's original inhabitants. Additionally, the term serves to connect local students with the unique natural landscape and history of their community, fostering a sense of place and identity. This naming tradition reflects a broader pattern in the U.S. of recognizing Indigenous peoples and local geography in educational institution names.
