New and returning Prince William County School Board Members took an oath of office at a ceremony held at the Kelly Leadership Center on Thursday, December 14, 2023.

Their term will begin on January 1, 2024, and end on December 31, 2027. Four members will be returning to represent their districts: Jennifer Wall (Gainesville), who served as Vice Chair this year, Justin Wilk (Potomac), Loree Williams (Woodbridge), and Lisa Zargarpur (Coles). Three new members were elected on November 7 and took the oath of office: Richard Jessie (Occoquan), Tracy Blake (Neabsco), and Erica Tredinnick (Brentsville).

Tredinnick beat incumbent Adele Jackson in the November 7 General Election. Voters chose Jessie to replace his wife, Lillie, who did not seek reelection after serving three terms. Blake returns Diane Raulston, who didn’t seek reelection and was largely absent for most of her term.
