Re: PokerBob gets screwed at work. What would you do?(tl;dr)
Bob,
Nothing affects administration as much as angry parents. If your rapport with the students is as strong as mine is with mine, start calling parents and telling them the situation. Say that you don't have many options but would love for them to come down to the principles office and tell him what they think about you.
It shouldn't take many parents for your clout to increase significantly. Also, when on the phone with parents you should be able to feel them out. If you can find a particularly militant one (Shouldn't be hard since they are AP parents) who is willing to help fight your cause (perhaps a younger sibling still in school) explain the pregnancy comparison and get them to threaten the principle to go to the school board to expose the unfair class distribution.
