The main use of computers in school should be teaching typing, word processing (and it probably should be with Word), number crunching and mathematics, and perhaps a little bit of graphics processing.
I agree that Excel should be taught, but also something like Mathematica (or some other CAS, rather than forcing TI calculators on kids). Python, perhaps through Jupyter Notebooks, would also probably be good too.
