Have they read it? Nope, they cannot read cursive. Now, if it were written in block letters they'd have a decent chance to read it, but not understand it.
I have learned to read old cursive to SOME degree in English, French, German, Spanish, and Latin. Enough to read the names, dates, etc. OH MY! Does it cause headaches! But kids who cannot read modern cursive in English? They are disconnected from their entire past history.
Ask kids who are school-age if they even know what a pen or pencil is. Their "workbooks" are laptop computers. Heck, they don't even have text books anymore. Ugh, our kids are being dumbed down while not even getting a decent education. No wonder youngsters don't know how to do anything.
No pencils? No pens? No writing on actual paper?? No jokes written in textbooks? SHEESH! No tactile interface with actual reality?? No reading actual physical books?!? I cannot imagine such sensory deprivation!
I went to a local school board meeting to ask about if the teachers make/force the kids to write in cursive. The school superintendent has made me Person-nongrata at the school because of my vociferous yearnings for the kids to learn cursive. He did not want to hear it. I then proceeded to hand every board member a notebook with a pencil in the pocket. Placed it into their hands at the end of the school board meeting. Yet to no avail. All it did was piss the board off. I even wrote them a letter explaining how learning the skill of cursive is good for the kids brains. I guess they want the kids to be mushed brained idiots. Oh well. I tried to do my part for the kids in this school district.
We have a zillion dollar new school here. The teachers are about as good as glorified baby sitters. There is no educating any more. It's all indoctrination. Sad, but at least a few kids understand what's happening, yet they do have leftist leanings. Unreal how our tax dollars are NOT being spent like the tax payers insist they be spent. But the school board has to comply with the State's policies of education. So I cannot blame then in total. Yet they should have the autonomy to make the decisions to properly educate out kids, especially if the policies of the state is WRONG. How is cursive detrimental to a child's educational experience? It isn't, the educators just see that an educated populace is bad for them. Thus they keep the kids dumbed down and the parents freightened to speak their opinions.
Are these the same leftists who cheered as Americans were being forced to take an experimental Covid "vax" that people knew was dangerous and that they didn't want injected into them?
The same leftists who cheered as people's opinions and medical facts were being suppressed regarding the Covid scam-demic?
I don't want to hear their opinions of the Constitution.
They wanted to do away with the Constitution, or call it a "fluid" construct! NOW because of Trump they pretend to care about the Constitution?!? NO they do NOT care about our inalienable rights in the least. They have the effrontery to use the Constitution to attack President Trump?!? What will they do next? Demand the 10 Commandments in the schools?!? HA!
In our neighborhood, there is a house that for years has had "BLM", "In this house we believe...", a bunch of this type of signs on their lawn. Just recently noticed they added a "Protect the Constitution" sign. Me and the wife had a nice giggle about how Trump jiu-jitsu'ed liberals into being pro-Constitution 😂

How they can justify NOT teaching cursive is beyond me! Thank you for your efforts! HOW can they call those buildings places of education?!?

They probably haven't read and don't care to read it. They think they know exactly what's in it. Even if they know they are WRONG.
