The Florida Department of Education sent a letter to the College Board, which runs the AP program, on May 19 asking the organization to review all AP courses to see if they need modification to ensure compliance with a Florida law and state Board of Education rule targeting instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity. The College Board responded with a defiant letter stating that "we will not modify our courses to accommodate restrictions teaching essential, college-level topics." The AP Psychology class is a potential point of conflict. The course has a unit dealing with developmental psychology that includes a discussion of gender and sexual orientation.
