I would prefer that students leave primary and secondary schools with the ability to reason, write well, and have some basic level of numeracy. Science can be picked up later when there is an interest in it. A few physics sections in HS for those who might have an interest in majoring in science in college should be sufficient. Three or more different levels of tracking in elementary or secondary science is simply wasteful - in fact I can't imagine a reason why it should be taught in elementary school.
