My daughter did not particularly like middle school. One thing she learned was a keen assessment of the character of people, and a determination to associate only with people that she determines to be "genuinely good" people, regardless of their popularity or otherwise.
Some form of that would be an important lesson for her to learn from this.

Xactly, we have been trying to prepare her for it and this appears on the face of it to be the first of what I'm sure will be many times we have to deal with it.
Naively I figured it would take longer than the first week of school
