AP Psychology Course Banned over Gender Identity Teachings

Florida school superintendents were told on Thursday that Advanced Placement (AP) Psychology classes will only be allowed in schools if they exclude the portions on sexual identity and gender identity, effectively banning the course in the state of Florida.

The College Board, which oversees the AP program, issued a long statement on Florida’s decision Thursday. It reiterated its June statement that AP classes cannot be modified in such a manner, and AP Psychology cannot be taught if these topics are omitted.

“Our policy remains unchanged,” it stated. “To be clear, any AP Psychology course taught in Florida will violate either Florida law or college requirements. Therefore, we advise Florida districts not to offer AP Psychology until Florida reverses their decision and allows parents and students to choose to take the full course.” (Excerpt from The Epoch Times.)
