I'm a decade older than the original commenter, and teachers started asking for homework papers to be typed even earlier for me. I did the first year or two of those on my dad's old mechanical typewriter lol. When I was in middle school it was really common for students to have a word processor that was hardware, not an application on their PC. These were basically a printer with a keyboard and like a 3 line LED display.
Anyhow, the last time I can recall using cursive as a requirement was in my IB exams, and it felt like a pointless anachronism there.
