[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC transferred in 9th grade to a private high school.  Many existing students were cliquey and didn’t want to interact with new students.  But their lgbtq students were open so DC made friends in their circle although DC themselves is not self-identified as lgbtq.  We're happy to see that [b]because this experience made DC a more authentic and kind person.[/b]  Is this a good topic for diversity essay in college application?  Would it backfire?  How would you approach (or not) this?[/quote]

How?[/quote]

DC is a rising senior now.

We later learned that the popular kids group doing lots of partying, into expensive clothing, situation relationship, etc.

The lgbtq group consists of not only lgbtq (though majority) but some non-lgbtq kids too. Tend to be more academic and EC oriented, but not nerds.  DC didn't know their friends are lgbtq before getting to know each individual.

It's a different experience from their middle school where DC has no lgbtq friends.[/quote]

There must be a better essay topic for your DC. We made ours write many outlines. That way there was less pressure to make it great and easier to refine the right story. This isn’t it for your child but have them outline it (and five other ideas) to get a better feel.[/quote]
