The Florida Department of Education has effectively banned the teaching of Advanced Placement Psychology in the state, instructing superintendents to exclude any mention of topics such as sexual orientation and gender identity. This ban has been met with criticism from many, including the American Civil Liberties Union of Florida and the National Center for Transgender Equality, who have both released statements condemning the ban. The College Board has expressed sadness at the decision and will continue to advocate for access to a full and comprehensive education for all students.
