In To Kill A Mockingbird why does the author separate calpurnia out from her peers by making her educated?

I think Harper Lee does in this way because she wants to show (particularly to racist people) that also coloured people can be educated, smart and intelligent(so discrediting most of prejudices); she wants to show that coloured people can be like white people, that they are like white people, and that actually there aren't any differencies between them, apart from the colour of the skin.
Calpurnia is a black woman, but in the Finch house she has the same importance as a white one.

Harper Lee separates Calpurnia from her peers by making her educated to challenge stereotypes and show that intelligence is not limited by race. Calpurnia serves as a strong female character who defies societal expectations and plays a crucial role in the Finch family despite being African American. Her education emphasizes the importance of knowledge and understanding in breaking down barriers of prejudice.
