I know of two of them.
Red Mesa High School which is on a Navajo Indian Reservation in Arizona. And Wellpinit High School which is on a Spokan Indian Reservation in Washington. Both of them chose Redskins as their mascot, and they were both named by the Indians of the Reservation.
Another thing about the name. When are people going to ask for the State of Oklahoma to change its name? It is a Choctaw Indian word that means "People with Red Skin" or some translate it as "Red People".
