Schechter's name is synonymous with the findings of the Cairo Geniza. He placed the JTSA on an institutional footing strong enough to endure for over a century. He became identified as the foremost personality of Conservative Judaism and is regarded as its founder. A network of [[Conservative Judaism|Conservative]] [[Jewish day school]]s is named in his honor, as well as a summer camp in Olympia, Washington. There are several dozen [[Solomon Schechter Day School Association|Solomon Schechter Day Schools]] across the United States and Canada.

His daughter Ruth was married to the South African Jewish politician [[Morris Alexander]] from 1907 to 1935.<ref>{{cite encyclopedia |last=Abrahams |first=Israel |author-link=Israel Abrahams |editor-last=De Kock |editor-first=W.
