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

The word "Oneida" is commonly found in U.S. public school names due to its significant historical and geographic roots, particularly in regions where the Oneida people or the Oneida Nation played an important role. The Oneida are one of the original members of the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) Confederacy, and their presence is especially prominent in areas such as New York and Wisconsin. Naming schools after "Oneida" often reflects a recognition and acknowledgment of the Native American heritage and the contributions of the Oneida community to local and national history. Additionally, the use of the name serves as a reminder and educational tool, encouraging students and community members to learn about and respect indigenous cultures and their enduring legacy in the United States. Geographic landmarks, towns, and counties named "Oneida" further contribute to the prevalence of the name in public institutions like schools.
