Stuyvesant High School ( STY -və-sənt ), commonly referred to as a nickname among its students, faculty and alumni as "Stuy" ( STY ), is a public college-preparatory, specialized high school in Manhattan , New York City, United States. Operated by the New York City Department of Education , (New York City Public Schools system), these specialized schools offer tuition -free accelerated academics to city residents.
Stuyvesant High was established as an all-boys school in the East Village of lower Manhattan in 1904. An entrance examination was mandated three decades later for all S.H.S. applicants starting in 1934, and after 65 years with an all-male student body, the high school started accepting female students in 1969. Stuyvesant High School moved to its current location at Battery Park City in 1992 because the student body had become too large to be suitably accommodated in the original campus. The old building / campus now houses several smaller high schools and charter schools. (Full article... )

James Morris III ((1752-01-19 ) January 19, 1752 – (1820-04-20 ) April 20, 1820) was a Continental Army officer from Connecticut during the American Revolutionary War and founder of the Morris Academy, a pioneer in coeducation .
Born in Litchfield County, Connecticut , James Morris spent his early life hoping and training to be a minister. However, after graduating from Yale College , Morris accepted a commission of First Lieutenant from the Continental Army and joined the fight for American Independence . Morris was captured during the Battle of Germantown and spent most of the remaining war in captivity. Upon his release, Morris was promoted to the rank of Captain and supported Alexander Hamilton in the Siege of Yorktown . When he returned from the war, Morris began and ran an academy that trained both boys and girls together, a rarity at the time. (Full article... )
