I was just baffled by this one.

Four years ago we were notified by the school system that they would no longer be teaching the kids cursive writing. I went to the school board meetings, PTA etc and voiced my concerns. They listened but blew me off.

Today my son and daughter come home and they have these "contracts" with the school covering everything from policies on bullying to dress codes etc. The instruction clearly say the child must SIGN their name. It actually says Do Not Print.

So neither of my kids know how to sign their names which was precisely my issue with the school's policy.

I called the school and asked... How are the kids supposed to sign their names when you are no longer teaching them cursive?

The answer: " Oh .. ummm... that's a good question"
