Furthermore, the American Psychological Association defended the content arguing that"topics of gender and sexual orientation are foundational for any college-level course in psychology."
"To AP teachers everywhere, please know we will not modify any of the 40 AP courses—from art to history to science—in response to regulations that would censor college-level standards for credit, placement, and career readiness." Florida DOE"implored" the College Board to review the courses since some of the courses may contain subject matter that violates the State Board of Education rule and Florida law.
