Florida's Attempt to Modify AP Courses on Gender and Sexuality Rejected by College Board
The College Board rejected Florida's request to modify "gender identity and sexual orientation" content in an Advanced Placement Psychology course, citing that doing so would break the fundamental promise of AP. The request was made by the Florida Department of Education Office of Articulation, which had asked the College Board to audit and potentially modify AP courses relative to the new Florida laws that restrict classroom instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity. The College Board stated that the learning objective within AP Psychology that covers gender and sexual orientation must remain a required topic, just as it has been in Florida for many years.
