There are 21 schools in the USA with the word reading in the name.

The word "reading" is commonly found in U.S. public school names for several historical and educational reasons. Historically, the emphasis on literacy has been central to American education, with reading being one of the "three Rs" (reading, writing, and arithmetic) viewed as foundational skills. Geographically, "Reading" is also the name of several towns and cities across the United States, such as Reading, Pennsylvania, and Reading, Massachusetts, leading to schools in those areas adopting the name. Culturally, American society has long regarded reading as a vital skill for civic participation, personal growth, and access to economic opportunity, further highlighting its importance in school names. Additionally, naming schools after prominent skills underscores a community's commitment to fostering basic literacy and supporting the educational development of its students.
