Heck...I'm still waiting for them to start teaching math and science at a level comparable to the rest of the civilized world...how far down the line are American kids on that score.

Math and Science first....language is nice...but not at the expense of, or without, the three R's and and Science for crying out loud.

It shouldn't have to be an either/or proposition. Quite often the kids who are good at math and the kids who are good at language are two different sets of kids.
