There are 57 schools in the USA with the word travis in the name.

The word "Travis" is commonly found in the names of U.S. public schools due to its association with notable historical figures and geographic locations, particularly in Texas. One of the most prominent connections is to William Barret Travis, a commander and hero of the Battle of the Alamo during the Texas Revolution, whose bravery and leadership made him an enduring symbol of sacrifice and patriotism in Texan and American history. As a result, many institutions, including schools, have been named in his honor to inspire students and commemorate his legacy. Additionally, the prevalence of Travis as a place name, such as Travis County in Texas, contributes to its frequent appearance in the naming of educational institutions in regions where the name holds historical or regional significance. This widespread use underscores the importance of local heritage and the desire to reflect community identity in school names.
