Welcome back to Schoolhouse Stories ✏️📚

Today we’re talking about *cursive writing!* Once a mandatory part of classroom life at The Schoolhouse, students carefully practiced their loops, links, and lines on slates and in exercise books.

Do you remember learning cursive? Do you still use it? Do you think it’s still necessary today?

Let us know in the comments, we wanna know! 👇
