<p>I agree with others that thee administration is being unprofessional and wants to throw others under the bus than to step up to their professional responsibilities. If the teacher is so terrible, why is the administration not addressing the issue with the teacher; modeling lessons, providing feedback from the formal and informal observations and if that does not work putting a letter into the file </p>
<p>Your school is not mandated to give AP courses. If they feel that the AP teacher is terrible, drop the AP course and and have the teacher teach another course in their license area (english). If the school has another English teacher qualified to teach the AP course, that teacher can teach the course again, as long as it is in their license area. No one has a lock on teaching any course. For example, just because you have been teaching AP english your whole career and now you school needs you teachfreshman english, as long as you are still teaching in your license area, you must teach the class.</p>
