[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Could someone explain the benefits of being around low performing kids from uneducated families for higher performing kids of college educated parents? 
My child has been in a school over 50% farms/ESOL and honestly there were only two benefits: tons of free stuff for the whole school and yummy food at festivals.
But I am sure I am narrow minded so I want to expand my horizons. [/quote]

One possible benefit is that it's easier for your child to be at the top of the class which might make help to get into college.  It's also possible that the classes might be graded less harshly, which also might help.[/quote]

Are you saying my kid might get graded like a brown kid and appear like an elite white kid without working for it?[/quote]

I am the original poster of this question. I didn’t post about “brown kids” (someone else jumped into the discussion).
But this grading/rating issue will not come into play until high school, won’t it?
What are the benefits in elementary and middle?[/quote]
