It has been my experience that school officials will offer some coding if that is what parents want. Coding, programming, and CS are used so interchangeably that often meaning is lost. So the bare minimum of coding classes will be presented as this massive shift toward STEM/CS, and parents will go along with it.

Again, that's ok as long as schools don't try to reuse these teachers to teach actual computer science courses later "because they already know some coding".
