There are 26 schools in the USA with the word rhea in the name.

The word "rhea" is commonly found in U.S. public school names primarily due to its historical and geographical significance, especially in regions named after notable figures or places called Rhea. For example, Rhea County in Tennessee is named after John Rhea, an important figure in early American history who served in the Revolutionary War and in Congress. As communities often name schools after local counties, towns, or influential individuals to foster a sense of local pride and heritage, the presence of "rhea" in school names reflects these traditions. Additionally, naming schools after local geographic features or historical figures is a longstanding practice that encourages students to appreciate the unique history of their area. In some cases, the use of "rhea" in a school's name serves to strengthen community identity and connect students with the cultural legacy of their region.
