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 This exclusion limits students' ability to access and interpret historical documents and handwritten materials.

True story both my children only had ANY handwriting in the first grade and the oldest part of 2nd I pointed that out was told they would not need it and treated like technophobic for asking. When I went to homeschooling I taught them both print and when our oldest got sick had to abandon Spencer penmanship lessons. Now both eagerly are self teaching from those books. As they pointed out being able to write beautifully would make them unique. Sad. I wish I too had been taught old school penmanship. My grandparents had such beautiful letters that I am so grateful for.
