Math is, more or less, the base science. I love it, but I understand how people end up hating it. It's taught in such a way that math problems and formulas are simply thrown at students for them to figure out. We rarely, at the primary education level, have discussions with students about math's role in physics, chemistry, biology, economics, music, art, sociology, etc.
If that connection were made early and regularly reinforced, more students might respect it for what it is - the common language that describes our universe, our world, and us.
