In the long-running battle over rezoning schools on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, the parent group that must ultimately approve a plan went on the offensive on Tuesday.
The group challenged the New York City Education Department in a letter to go further in integrating neighborhood schools than it has been willing to go.
It called on the department to zone an additional building from a development called Lincoln Towers to Public School 191, whose students are mostly poor, black and Hispanic, and which well-off parents have historically avoided.
