[quote=Anonymous]Not on the level of a hook. Coming from a school with limited resources is typically relevant in a few ways. School clubs/activities are judged in the context of the high school. Sometimes the high school can indicate low-income but that typically only matters if the student is a Pell recipient - sounds like that is not the case, and other factors will be considered that may indicate the truth, such as parent education and employment. The most significant benefits of being at a title 1 high school would be ease of being at the top of the class for grades and a potential (but unstated) inference about race background. The downsides of a low resource high school include (1) potential lack of rigor available and (2) not being as prepared for college academically compared to a high school with average resources.[/quote]
