Three of the four newly elected members of the Onslow County Board of Education have been sworn into office.
Incumbent Ken Reddic was administered the oath of office along with new members Melissa Oakley and Eric Whitfield in a ceremony Tuesday night at the Eastern North Carolina Regional Skills Center.
“Now the real work begins,” Oakley said after the brief ceremony. Her family and Onslow County Commissioner Robin Knapp stood with her as she took the oath of office.
The three were sworn in by District Court Judge Michael Surles, who administered the oath from a microphone more than six feet away from the board members and their families to abide by safety guidelines to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.
