There are 27 schools in the USA with the word wilmington in the name.

The word "Wilmington" is commonly found in U.S. public school names because it is the name of multiple cities and towns across the United States, notably in states such as Delaware, North Carolina, and Ohio. Many American schools take their names from the communities or neighborhoods they serve, reflecting their connection to local identity and history. The name Wilmington itself often carries historical significance, as many towns were named during periods of early colonization and westward expansion, frequently honoring people, cities, or places from Europe or early American history. By naming schools after their city or town, communities foster a sense of local pride and unity among students, reinforcing the school's role as a central institution in civic life. This practice helps to strengthen the bond between educational institutions and their surrounding communities, emphasizing the importance of local heritage in public education.
