[quote=Anonymous]what is interesting and seems unsustainable about is that it is a tightly geographically bounded school on the one side, with a high-income mostly white population, and it used to have a geographically proximate Spanish I speaking population. Since that population has moved further away, Oyster has taken on an odd half-bilingual-magnet configuration but only for the side of the school the starts off Spanish speaking. For inbounds upper class parents the school is a right, for everyone else it's a couple of seats in a good school if your child speaks Spanish. And the dynamic of who get those Spanish reserved seats is competitive due to overall limited quality in the City.[/quote]
