There are 13 schools in the USA with the word tribal in the name.

The word "tribal" is commonly found in U.S. public school names because many such schools are established on or near Native American reservations and serve Indigenous communities. These schools are often run by tribal governments or in partnership with the Bureau of Indian Education, reflecting the unique cultural and educational needs of Native American students. The use of "tribal" in the school names acknowledges the deep historical and geographic connections these institutions have to specific Native nations and their traditional lands. Additionally, incorporating "tribal" emphasizes the schools' commitment to preserving and promoting Indigenous heritage, languages, and customs within their educational programs.
