It's reductive, like calling people "illegals," and right out of the right-wing playbook. You weren't using "Title I kids" to refer to all the kids at Title I schools, regardless of their family incomes.

I think you think there is only one other poster on here.  I'm the one who taught  "Title I kids" when they were identified individually.  Now, any child in a Title I school is a "Title I kid."  It is not a perjorative.  Why do you think it is?

There are lots of FARMS kids who are not in Title I schools.  But, FARMs is also not a perjorative.  What is wrong with you?

Already explained. Are you dense, or just argumentative?

In either case, glad to read that you “taught” in a Title I school, and not that you are currently teaching at one. Our children deserve better than teachers who are happy to slap labels like “Title I kid” on them.  If you don’t get that, shame on you.[/quote]
