There are 28 schools in the USA with the word square in the name.

The word "square" is commonly found in U.S. public school names due to its strong historical and cultural associations with public gathering places. In many American towns and cities, the term "square" refers to the town square-a central, open area where people would gather for community events, civic activities, and important announcements. Naming a school after a "square" reflects the idea of the school as a central, unifying space within the community, much like the traditional town square. Additionally, the term evokes ideals of equality, openness, and shared civic values, signaling that the school is a welcoming place for all members of the community. This naming convention emphasizes the role of schools as foundational spaces for education and civic engagement.
