Can't do that. How would they fit in meaningful life skills/knowledge? Can't get rid of 2 years of a foreign language, generally taught by a non-native speaker, that you won't remember while at an age where you're past your language learning prime. Can't get rid of pre-Calculus, Chemistry, Algebra-2, or learning about old English poets. Those are all things that will be desperately needed for everyone's upcoming life. Certainly can't cut back on the time spent learning only what you need to pass standardized tests that are a true gauge of academic excellence.
