The Common Core State Standards, introduced in 2010, did not include cursive writing. As a result, many states and school districts eliminated cursive instruction from their curricula. This exclusion limits students' ability to access and interpret historical documents and handwritten materials.

I was struggling in courses such as Microbiology, Anatomy and Physiology, and other subjects that required memorization of huge bits of data. I kind of accidentally figured out a way to make it stick. It was tedious, and took quite a bit of time, but it worked. I'd make notes, directly from the textbooks, then write those notes, word for word two or three times, using cursive writing. I can't imagine trying to do that by printing. Anyway, my grades improved dramatically. BTW, I learned cursive starting in first grade, and it was an actual graded subject called "Penmanship". Yeah, I'm that old.
me too darlin, me too. Back then we learned a lot through repetition, and we did not get passed on to higher grades if we did not learn our stuff.
