Steven believes every child deserves a high-quality education that prepares them for success in life, regardless of the circumstances they are born into. He supports giving families more options—whether public, charter, private, or technical schools—so parents can choose what works best for their children.
He is committed to strengthening core academics while ensuring students develop critical thinking, digital literacy, and real-world skills needed to thrive in today’s world. Steven advocates for local control of education, greater transparency for parents, and the full integration of skilled trades and career training programs into school systems. He also believes that keeping schools safe, supporting dedicated teachers, and making sure education funding is spent wisely are essential to providing a well-rounded education.
