Different pools for dynamic and "static" leases

Hello, 

We've setup 2 pools in our subnet declarations. One pool is for dynamic clients and the other is for "static" clients that have host declarations with "fixed-address" options. We added the static pool since our servers are configured in a failover pair. 

Ex: 
subnet 10.128.8.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
   option routers... 
   # dynamic pool
   pool {
      options... 
      range 10.128.8.16 10.128.8.200;
   }
  # static pool
   pool {
     options... 
      range 10.128.8.201 10.128.8.250;
}

Is there a way to stop dynamic hosts from getting addresses out of the static pool? 

Thanks,
