Education Reform
Preparing students for real opportunity, safer schools, and a stronger future across Virginia’s 3rd District.
Our Students Deserve Better
Virginia’s families deserve schools that prepare students for the real world — not overcrowded classrooms, underfunded programs, and political distractions.
Edwin Rivera believes education should create opportunity. That means supporting teachers, investing in safe learning environments, expanding workforce and trade programs, and ensuring students graduate with the tools they need to succeed.
Strong communities begin with strong schools.

Investing In Virginia’s Future
Communities across Newport News, Norfolk, Hampton, and Portsmouth need educational systems that help students compete in a changing economy while keeping them connected to their communities.
Edwin Rivera supports practical investments that strengthen public education, expand opportunity, and prepare the next generation for success.
