The Cursive is Cool contest recognizes excellence in both legibility and neatness, while also rewarding creative content with a special prize for each grade level. To ensure that every participant has an opportunity to win, a random drawing will also be conducted, giving all entrants a chance at receiving a prize. Prizes are awarded to educators, too.
“Cursive handwriting is more than just a competency—it enhances cognitive development, fine motor skills, and creativity, among other things,” said Sheila Lowe, president of AHAF. “This contest is a fun way to encourage children to practice and take pride in their writing.”
Entries will be judged based on clarity, style, and originality. The contest is open to all kindergarten through sixth-grade students, and submissions will be accepted until April 15, 2025. Winners will be contacted by email. Teachers, parents, and grandparents are encouraged to enter their kids in the 2025 Cursive is Cool contest.
