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

The word "Osage" is commonly found in U.S. public school names because of its historical and geographic significance, particularly in regions where the Osage Nation once lived or continues to reside. The Osage people are a Native American tribe whose ancestral lands spanned areas of the Midwest, including parts of present-day Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, and Arkansas. Naming schools after the Osage reflects a recognition of the tribe's influence, legacy, and long-standing presence in these areas. Additionally, incorporating the name "Osage" into public institutions can serve as a way to educate students and the broader community about local Native American heritage and history. This practice helps preserve cultural awareness and fosters respect for the diverse backgrounds that have shaped many American communities.
