A lot already do. My highschool for example had CAD and drafting classes, "Digital electronics" (basic circuits and "electrical technician style work"), an automotive class, and one or two more that I don't remember. What we need is pressure from those above school administrators to make these kinds of classes more common. The educators themselves don't really get to teach whatever they feel like....
