Don't worry

Even if we don't bother to teach science to elementary school kids, they'll have a good education in diversity and social justice, which should be plenty.
Underperformance in science has frequently been linked to standards set by the No Child Left Behind Act, a 2001 federal law that measures students' proficiency in reading and math through state tests.

"The test relies way too heavily on literature and math. It is destroying the schools. It is destroying public education," said Cathryn Bruno, president of the Berkeley PTA Council.
Might I propose an alternate theory? Perhaps ignoring literature and math is destroying public education.
