Elana Shneyer and Adam Kaufman live a few hundred feet from Public School 165, the Robert E. Simon School, on West 109th Street, at the edge of Morningside Heights in Manhattan. When they started looking for a kindergarten for their son, who will start in the fall, the school was an early stop.
That made them unusual.
Although their neighborhood is diverse, the children who go to P.S. 165, its zoned school, are mostly Hispanic and low-income. Most of the white students who live in the area it serves attend school elsewhere.
But Ms. Shneyer and Mr. Kaufman, who are white, liked that the school had a Spanish dual-language program and that its kindergarten classes had only 10 to 15 students.

Well you can thank Obama for this he wanted a race war in this country to dividecus and the liberals are continuing it.
Nothing new/exciting here.
Large cities across the country have the same exact "challenges". If you are part of the city "elite" you can bend the rules so your children go to perceived better schools, regardless which jurisdiction you live in.
Those that "have" don't have to be educated with the "have nots". Those who are the "have nots"...well, maybe some FREE education at a community college will be in your future!
11:06 Agree whole heartily with this! No little white girls should be forced to go to public school with the new PC Liberal agenda being pushed on them!
