Scout learned from Atticus, her father, that the Cunninghams were country farmers, and were decimated by the stock crash. He explained to her they were very proud, and did not accept charity, leading to Walter Cunningham's refusal of lunch money offered by the teacher. She learned that Mr Cunningham's entailment was being paid off in produce, since he had no cash.
Aunt Alexandra believes that the Cunninghams are not socially equal to the Finch family, so she disapproves of Scout being friends with Walter Cunningham. She thinks that associating with the Cunninghams could affect the family's reputation and social standing.
Aunt Alexandra objects to Scout inviting Walter Cunningham to their house because she sees the Cunninghams as lower-class and does not think they are suitable companions for the Finch family. She puts a lot of emphasis on social status and tries to instill these values in Scout.
