There are 32 schools in the USA with the word veritas in the name.

The word "veritas," which is Latin for "truth," is commonly found in U.S. public school names due to its historical and cultural significance in education. The use of Latin reflects the influence of classical education, which has long been valued in the United States as a foundation for intellectual rigor and moral development. Many early American colleges and educational institutions adopted Latin words and mottos to emphasize ideals such as truth, knowledge, and integrity. Over time, public schools have continued this tradition, using "veritas" to symbolize their commitment to academic honesty and the pursuit of truth in learning. The presence of "veritas" in school names also connects contemporary education with the enduring legacy of Western educational values.
