Oyster does not feed Deal
PP who wrote that- you are correct! It feeds to Wilson but goes through middle school. Sorry for the incorrect information- I went to Deal in the 90s and had friends from Oyster there (so I think is used to feed to Deal? Or maybe they were out of bounds? Not sure).
Oyster used to feed to Deal until only a few years ago.

So you could move to Mt Pleasant and get bumped ahead of other OOB students for Bancroft. I am not sure where you would be on the list though- i.e. if you would be at the bottom of the in-bounds or you would be somewhere in the middle based on your master number. Might want to call My School DC and ask.
You would be placed on the inbounds waitlist based on your lottery number — I.e., in theory you could move to the top of the inbounds waitlist if you had a great number.
