Yes sir! That was the first thing I thought when I found out the school wasn't teaching cursive.
The semi-private school my son was in taught cursive, but he never practiced it so I'm gonna have to get on him about that! lol They also taught Latin, which I think is crucial as well. Unfortunately, my son now goes to the public high school. Hopefully, the one that he was in prior will get on it to build a high school facility soon and I'll put in him back in. The other option of course is home school if this one decides to get froggy on some questionable stuff, i.e. pushing to have the Vid jab to attend!

This link takes you to a study on the importance of cursive handwriting and brain activity

Here is their pdf
Go this link and read the abstract about longhand advantages! Very interesting, cursive writing actually engages the brain more.
