The latin word was "schola", which derived from the Greek word "skhole" meaning "school, lecture, discussion". Finding out where a word comes from is called "etymology", so next time you need to know where a word comes from Google "etymology" and the word.

Most schools get their name from the history of the school, who founded the school, a beneficial donator, or a famous person that attended the school.
