Kids these days do absolutely still know how to read analog clocks.
Besides, they probably shouldn't put effort into that. Those things are close to useless nowadays. It's mostly a case of schools being conservative... but then, it's not that much of an effort, so there are more important things to care about.
If we only taught things that were "useful" then we'd be discarding half the curriculum. Stuff like history, art, and how a fucking analog clock works, is worth teaching, even if it's not something everyone uses every day.
