    Student Applications:
    Amistad is a neighborhood school of choice in Upper
    Manhattan serving District 6. The dual language model
    depends upon the balance of language in the classroom,
    therefore equal numbers of English-dominant and Spanish
    Dominant students are recruited. The school uses a variety of
    Community outreach efforts to recruit a broad pool of families.
    They distribute brochures in Spanish and English, provide
    open houses and tours, and disseminate informational folders
    and applications throughout the community. Applicants are
    divided into four pools according to language dominance
    (English, Spanish), and gender. Equal numbers of students are
    selected from each pool by random lottery.

    All tours are scheduled for 8:15am:
