There are 67 schools in the USA with the word round in the name.

The word "round" is commonly found in U.S. public school names due to historical and geographic factors. In many regions, "round" refers to distinctive local landmarks such as Round Rock in Texas or Round Hill in Virginia, with schools often named after these notable features to signify a connection to the community's natural environment. Additionally, some early American settlers used the term "round" to describe areas that were circular in geography or land use, such as a clearing or communal gathering place, which became central to town identity and thus a fitting name for public institutions. Naming schools after such locations helps preserve the heritage and identity of a community, fostering a sense of belonging and continuity among students and residents. This use of locally significant names also serves as an educational tool, teaching students about their area's unique historical and geographic context.
