PENDER COUNTY, N.C. (WECT) – Jason Jordan was sworn in Monday to represent District 2 on the Pender County Board of Education, filling a seat vacated by Beth Burns.
Burns stepped down to serve on the Pender County Board of Commissioners. Jordan ran unopposed for the District 2 seat in the Nov. 3 general election.
Judge James H. Faison III administered the oath during the board’s regular meeting on Nov. 9. The early swearing-in allows Jordan to begin serving before newly elected board members are typically seated in December, according to the school district.
