Resolution in support of instruction in reading and writing in cursive
This non-binding resolution encourages Montana school districts to provide cursive writing instruction to students, starting at a developmentally appropriate age and continuing through their education. It does not mandate or fund cursive instruction but urges schools to include it so students can read historical documents (like the Declaration of Independence), sign documents, and benefit from cognitive development linked to learning cursive. The resolution directs Montana's Secretary of State to send copies to the Superintendent of Public Instruction, the Board of Public Education, and all public school boards. It directly affects Montana's public school districts and their curriculum decisions.
