I am either confused about the functionality you want, or the
functionality PreserveSingleQuotes provides.
PreserveSingleQuotes preserves single quotes for database inserts by
automatically escaping them. It needs a variable as the value, not a
string. I'm assuming you already have "Teacher's Group" in a variable?
<cfoutput>
<cfset temp = "Teacher's Group">
#PreserveSingleQuotes(temp)#
</cfoutput>
You could probably try to do something more using replace:
#Replace("Teacher's Group", "'", "''", "all")#
will return:
Teacher''s Group
