[quote=Anonymous]OP - You might want to distinguish between schools (or classes) that are socioeconomically homogeneous, culturally homogenous, and academically homogeneous. There are arguments pro and con for each of these measures. As others have pointed out, private schools can have mostly affluent students with a wide range of ability levels. Conversely, some public school magnets have much more cultural and socioeconomic diversity. An Asian immigrant family that earns $75,000/year and a White family that earns over half a million/year aren't identical in my book, even if neither family's children qualify for free lunch.[/quote]
