I was taught as a child. But that was over 15 years ago. I still have two books that detail all them from my grandfather.

We saw a list somewhere, but I doubt most Americans know much beyond recent ones and the ones on money

I was taught the presidents back in 5th grade (Reagan was president at the time) - we got up to Herbert Hoover before the class had to switch over to something else.

As a GenX, we were taught in maybe 5th or 6th grade. Which would have been Reagan as the last. Ford getting shot at by a Manson member is my earliest presidential memory.
As a grad student in PoliSci, I used to teach the presidents to people studying for the citizenship exam. --- Not everyone is suitable to kill a lion - Maasai proverb. ... Copied to Clipboard!

The only presidents people remember are the recent ones, the ones that got shot, and the ones they don't like.

I feel like we touch on all of them on our US history courses at least once. But there's a lot of them that were unmemorable. Not that they did a bad job, but just nothing extraordinary.
