I think that is all you really need. I mean, once you know how to write, learning cursive could be done in a few hours, it is fairly simple. After that it is up to the student whether to use it or not. I was never required to use it but I still liked it so the more I used it the better I got.
Honestly, I really do not understand all the complaning about cursive. Learning to read and write was harder (I imagine cause I don't actually remember struggling with it, it just came naturally) . Learning cursive is just a simple extension of it.

My memory of school was everything was required to be turned in cursive, but I was so bad at it that I wrote everything in print, then wrote a version in cursive, and then turned in both versions so there was one legible version and one version to fulfill the rules. It was a pain and I hated it, so it's a bad memory that it still feels cathartic to complain about.
Hmm, my entire education until high-school was entirely cursive. It was something of a revelation that a different method of writing existed, even though I was sort of aware that the letters in book didn’t look like the letters I wrote.
