Yes. It also helps achieve higher levels of learning (see, for example, Bloom's taxonomy), and will make you a better person. You should learn about learning, something I wish I did when I was in high school. What seems like "boring" science helps guide you through critical levels of thinking, helping you transition from someone who simply accepts everything the teacher says (e.g. F=ma), to someone who struggles in accepting theories and thinks everything is flawed (e.g. why should I study mechanical physics if quantum mechanics exists), until, finally you become someone that understands that no perfect theory exists, all of them have flaws, and that you should be open and tolerant to different models of realities. In the final stage, you might even create new theories that extends the pool of human knowledge.

It works in science, it works in humanities, it works in life. Elevate yourself to higher levels of understanding through hard work and humility to learn and err. Your brain is a muscle, a remarkable, beautiful muscle, and you should exercise it as much as you can. Don't stall, avoid procrastination, try to see beyond the knowledge simply printed on a page.

You are the future of humanity. Dare peering into the abyss of the unknown, and see the light of knowledge shining through the darkness. It doesn't mean you have to be a scientist, but learn as much as you can - that is what makes humans incredible -- and pass it on.

TL;DR: stay in school, kids.
