As another example of the same sort of thing, the gifted program in my kids' district is housed in the lowest performing school of the district. So when the school takes standardized tests, the gifted program kids help raise the average test scores of the school, thus making it appear that the school is doing fine, instead of in real trouble. How is this helpful?
