There are 45 schools in the USA with the word neil in the name.

The word "Neil" is commonly found in U.S. public school names due to its association with notable historical and cultural figures, most prominently Neil Armstrong, the first person to walk on the moon. Schools are often named after individuals who have made significant contributions to society, science, or local communities, and Neil Armstrong is widely celebrated for his role in advancing space exploration and inspiring generations of students. In some regions, "Neil" may also reflect the name of local educators, community leaders, or benefactors who played a significant role in the development of education within that area. This practice of naming schools after influential individuals serves to honor their achievements and encourages students to aspire to similar levels of accomplishment and public service. As a result, the name "Neil" conveys a sense of aspiration, history, and respect for those who have positively impacted society.
