520 $a The central question of this study asks what impact did the families and the school have on the academic achievement and sociocultural adjustment of six Mexican American high school graduates.
520 $a The theoretical framework of this study rests primarily on the immigration theories and findings of Portes and Rumbaut (1996), the sociocultural works of Trueba (1987, 1988, 1991, 1993) and Ogbu (1974, 1978), Segura and Pierce's (1993) vision of the Mexican American family, and Banks' (1993) multicultural concepts.
520 $a Recently, three Texas researchers studied the issue of Mexican American working class high school achievement from different perspectives. Romo and Falbo (1996) studied one hundred at-risk students, Valenzuela (1999) focused on a Houston high school with a high at-risk population and Cordeiro (1990) did an ethnography of twenty high achievers. In contrast, the present study explored the experiences of six successful females who had recently graduated form high school.
520 $a A qualitative case study methodology was used. In-depth data collection strategies included individual, person-to-person, open-ended, lengthy, audiotaped and transcribed interviews of the six girls; shorter similar interviews of their mothers, and various key teachers and administrators. This data was triangulated with ethnographic observations of the homes and the school as well as archival information on the district, the school and the individual students. Given the researcher's fifteen-year association with the school, the validity of the study was protected by not including former students in the sample. The data was analyzed in a holistic manner.
520 $a Important findings: (1) A critical mass (or preponderance) of positive experiences over the negatives was the key to the subjects' success: the more the positive, the greater the success. (2) Many so-called cultural experiences were in reality of a socioeconomic nature. The acceptance of the girls by high achieving peers and teachers hinged more on their knowing the hidden rules of the white middle class than their home culture. (3) Critical mass socioeconomic incongruencies affect institutions as well as individuals. Both individuals and institutions require time and effort to adapt.
