FADSS Statement on AP Psychology -8/4/2023

The Florida Department of Education (FDOE) has not banned AP Psychology.

FADSS continues to work diligently with FDOE and school superintendents who want to continue to offer AP Psychology. Superintendents are openly communicating with parents their district’s plans for this course or an alternative college level course as we prepare for the start of the school year.

AP Psychology continues to be listed in Florida’s Course Code Directory and we hope that College Board will keep the best interests of students at the forefront and award college credit to all Florida students who successfully complete the AP Psychology exam.

A Message from FADSS CEO

FADSS 2023 – 2024 Board of Directors Installed

Baker County Schools Superintendent Sherrie Raulerson Takes Helm as FADSS President

I am pleased to announce, that Baker County Schools Superintendent Sherrie Raulerson was recently installed as the 2023 - 2024 FADSS President.

Supt. Raulerson takes over the helm from Bay County Schools Superintendent William “Bill” Husfelt, who is currently serving his fourth term as the elected superintendent in Bay County, which is a remarkable accomplishment. Bill's leadership throughout the past year as FADSS President, and his long-term leadership on the Board will be sorely missed, and we congratulate him on his retirement!

If there is one constant in public education, it is change. While change overall can be challenging, it also brings new energy and insight.

Our association is fortunate to have Supt. Raulerson in this leadership role as president, particularly at this pivotal time in public education. Her vision for renewed connection and collegiality among superintendents, as well as other education stakeholders, is well-timed.

She is one of the most passionate and fearless education advocates I have known throughout my 50 years in education, and I feel privileged to know her and work with her. I am confident that through her leadership, combined with the stellar group of educators that comprise the FADSS’ board of directors, FADSS will continue to successfully meet any challenges head-on to ensure the integrity of Florida’s public education system.

Yours in Education,

Bill Montford
