There are 276 schools in the USA with the word village in the name.

The word "village" is commonly found in U.S. public school names due to its historical and cultural connotations of community, closeness, and shared responsibility. Traditionally, villages represent small, tight-knit communities where members are interconnected and actively support one another, which reflects the values many schools aim to foster among students, families, and staff. In addition, as suburban and planned communities developed in the twentieth century, the term "village" was often adopted to evoke a sense of unity and neighborliness that set the community apart from larger urban areas. Schools adopting the name often wish to convey an environment that emphasizes inclusion, collaboration, and a nurturing approach to education, similar to the supportive atmosphere one might find in a traditional village setting. This naming choice also helps anchor the school as a central, integral part of the local community's identity.
