Seeking insight. I'm researching the NYC school system, but it's very confusing. We may be moving to Brooklyn from out of state and would be seeking a Spanish immersion program for our son, who will be in 7th grade. He's fluent or close to fluent in Spanish, but a native English speaker. Would he be able to get into a dual-language program, or is still part of the lottery, meaning he likely would not be able to? Is it just pure luck? Looking for public or charter, but not private.
