"I Can't Read Cursive...."


One of the most upsetting bits of testimony we’ve heard from the murder trial going on right now was the comment from a witness that she can’t read cursive. That means that the public school system is even worse than we thought. How on earth can anyone even get to middle school and not be able to read and write in cursive?

There are school systems around the country that are cutting cursive in favor of “keyboarding”. They are teaching students to use computer keyboards instead of learning the real basics. If this trend continues we will have a whole new generation that cannot even read the Constitution or Declaration of Independence because they were written in cursive!!
