    They stopped teaching it in schools around TX a long time ago. High Schoolers nowadays were shocked when I said that reading clocks was a 1st grade skill because they weren’t taught to tell time.

      Schools I’ve worked at have all had analog clocks for all their time pieces, unless a particular teacher brought their own. Or the clocks on computers, but those weren’t always consistently reliable.
