The Johnston County Board of Education held a meeting on February 4, 2025, to evaluate candidates for the District 7 vacancy. Three individuals—Gracie Chamblee, Thomas Daughtery, and Jeff Sullivan—were interviewed for half an hour each. The board assessed their experience, leadership qualities, and vision for the district.
On February 6, 2025, during a special session, the board voted to appoint Jeff Sullivan as the new representative for District 7. Sullivan will serve until December 2028, completing the term of his predecessor.
"As Chair of the Board of Education, I am thrilled to welcome Jeff Sullivan to the JC Board of Education as a representative of District 7," said Lyn Andrews, Chair of the Johnston County Board of Education. "It is most evident that Jeff has a love for Johnston County and a true passion for Johnston County Public Schools."
Sullivan has dedicated his entire 32-year career to education within Johnston County Public Schools. He also spent two years as a driver's education instructor at Clayton High. His roles have included assistant principal, special education teacher, Exceptional Children Program Specialist, teacher assistant, and coach.
Sullivan expressed his commitment to providing "careful attention, collaboration, and willingness to listen to different perspectives in order to make decisions that focus on student success."
"We look forward to Jeff sharing his talents with the Board as we continue to move our school system forward," Andrews concluded.
