I managed to learn how to code when I was that young all while learning everything else the state required. AND I did band / marching band / video production. What I think should be mandatory is instead of sticking kids right into algebra/calculus/etc make them take the "consumer math" class I opted for. It does everything you suggest in addition to how to pay taxes and save for retirement - you know stuff you actually need to know how to do.
