Florida’s increasingly strict rules about what can be taught in classrooms have brought about an effective ban on certain Advanced Placement classes.
The College Board, which oversees the AP program, says it was told by the state Thursday that it must exclude any topics relating to gender or sexuality in its AP Psychology program if it wanted the classes to be taught in Florida schools. College Board officials say there’s no way to do so and have advised schools not to offer the program until the restrictions are removed.
