Default Songs and artists you think should be learned in school

I don't know what is it like in other countries, but in my country the educational system is very wrong. From 1st to 4th grade we learned only some children's songs, and then we started learning only classical music. Of course children won't accept the good music this way. So, I started thinking how children could be introduced to music easier. Here are some artists who MUST be learned in school:

1st - 4th grade: Beach Boys, Beatles, Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry, Simon & Garfunkel, Bo Diddley, Louis Armstrong, Ray Charles, Roy Orbison, Al Green, Johnny Cash

5th - 8th grade: Neil Young, James Brown, Stevie Wonder, Little Richard, Otis Redding, Elton John, Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra, Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Eagles, Queen, Iron Maiden, Metallica, Mozart, Tchaikovsky

9th - 12th grade: Bob Dylan, Marvin Gaye, BB King, Jimi Hendrix, Sam Cooke, Muddy Waters, Eric Clapton, Bruce Springsteen, Prince, Pink Floyd, The Doors, Bach, Beethoven, Haydn, Handel
