The Rosalyn Yalow Charter School will be a K-8th grade school in District 9 of the Bronx, honoring Nobel Laureate and former District 10 resident Rosalyn S. Yalow (1921-2011).
Mission Statement. The Rosalyn Yalow Charter School will eliminate the learning achievement gap for economically disadvantaged urban children—including special needs students and English language learners—by using engaging and demanding education, a team teaching model, linking an experienced teacher with a licensed social worker in grades K-2 and with a teaching fellow in later grades, rich extracurricular activities (fencing, arts, chess) to educate the whole child, and family support counseling—all in order to graduate our students at or above grade level in literacy and math.
