My son is in 8th grade and was never taught cursive writing. Just found out was mandatory but not taught. Now July 1 2026 it becomes law. All of generation A is screwed. Kids can’t sign there name. St. John’s county schools cheat for there number one ranking. I regret moving here. Now I have to do the teachers job. I wish I never voted to raise salaries. ST John’s county has failed are children…I will never vote to raise taxes again for this country.
