ORLANDO, Fla. — Florida will not allow public school students to take Advanced Placement psychology because the course includes lessons on sexual orientation and gender identity, topics forbidden by the state, the College Board said Thursday. That could mean that a week before school starts in many districts, about 5,000 Central Florida students and about 27,000 statewide may not be able to take a class they signed up to tackle in the 2023-24 school year.
On what basis would it?
Surely the government is allowed to teach what courses are run in government run schools by government employees in general. I mean, someone has to, and who else would it be?
Or if you’re referring to the religion aspect of the first amendment… this seems religiously neutral?
The constitution doesn’t ban bad governance, just some particularly easy to enumerate forms of it.
Florida does forbid teachers from discussing certain topics. That’s a 1A issue if letting coaches pray on football fields is.
