Thanks. How do I find out what the boundary is?

But what if I work for the Mayor?

But you should also look up a specific address on the boundary system to confirm. Some streets are split.

Anyone know the chances if you are Spanish dominant?

OOB and English-Dominant? No way Jose. Spanish-dominant? A decent, but not great chance—it varies from year to year.

Indeed - I hear even Spanish dominant WITH sibling preference is not a given...

Anyone have any thoughts on the quality comparison between oyster Adams and WIS (Spanish)?

If money is not a major concern, go to WIS.

That's only a guarantee beginning at kindergarten. And if your kid is much older than kindergarten and not proficient in Spanish, expect to be strongly encouraged to send your kid to the monolingual alternative school.
