Salk School of Science
Salk School of Science

The Salk School of Science is a renowned junior high school in Gramercy, Manhattan, New York City and is a very competitive school. For the class of 2023, the admissions rate was just above 4%. It was founded in 1995 as a unique collaboration between the New York University School of Medicine and the New York City Department of Education. The goal of the school is to encourage an enthusiasm for, and the development of abilities in, the sciences, particularly the medical and biological sciences. Science and math are specialties at the school, including special classes for it and after-school programs. A particular aim is to encourage city children to aim for better high schools and colleges. It is located on the top two floors of the P.S. 40 building on East 20th Street between 1st and 2nd Avenues in Manhattan.The school was named for Jonas Salk, developer of the first polio vaccine. Dr. Salk approved the use of his name by NYU before his death in 1995. The school's nontraditional discovery-based learning methodology has been cited as resulting in improved cognitive and reasoning skills in students.Members of the New York medical community work with the school to develop curriculum, and members of the Schools of Medicine and New York University School of Dentistry at New York University teach and mentor students in grades 6 through 8. The NYU Medical Center makes facilities available to the school, and members of the science faculty of the NYU School of Medicine review school students at certain points in their school career, notably at admission and graduation.Although the school is dubbed as a "Science School", the middle school spends an equal amount of time on Humanities (Reading, Writing and Social Studies), as well as Math. Other notable classes include Spanish, Art, Physical Education, Technology, Health and Drama. The principal of the school is Rhonda Perry and the vice/assistant principal is Jennifer Goodwin. The school allows students to bring money to school and at lunch time, to go out and buy themselves lunch at a variety of delis and restaurants. The school shares its building with another school, P.S. 40 which owns most of the building. There is a gymnasium, a cafeteria which is shared between the schools, and 2 floors exclusive to Salk School of Science. Both are located near the top of the building. There are 3 entrances one to the left side of the building, one to the right and one in the center. Students will normally exit through the right hand exit. There is school bus service which will bring students to and from school, thought most students take public transportation.

Society for the Lying-In Hospital
Society for the Lying-In Hospital

The Society for the Lying-In Hospital was an American maternity hospital situated at 305 Second Avenue between East 17th and 18th Streets in the Stuyvesant Square neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City. Now known as Rutherford Place, the building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. Lying-in is an archaic term for childbirth (referring to the month-long bed rest prescribed for postpartum confinement). It was built in 1902 and designed by architect R. H. Robertson in the Renaissance Revival style, with a Palladian crown at the top. Swaddled babies decorate the windows of the 5th floor and the spandrels of the building, which was converted to offices and apartments in 1985 by Beyer Blinder Belle.As the years passed, John Pierpont Morgan, Jr. was concerned about the long-term stability of the hospital his father had so generously provided for. He recruited John D. Rockefeller, Jr.; George F. Baker, Sr.; and George F. Baker, Jr. to join forces in establishing an association with New York Hospital. Upon the subsequent opening of the New York Hospital-Cornell Medical Center in 1932, the Lying-In Hospital moved out of the Second Avenue building. It became the more modern-sounding Obstetrics and Gynecology Department of New York Hospital, which is still part of NewYork–Presbyterian Hospital. This hospital was "said to account for 60 percent of all births in Manhattan." Some of their staff did medical research.
