As a Middletown Board of Education member, the Rev. Greg Tyus said he would continue to work on ideas he campaigned with for the November board election.

Tyus, a former board member and councilman, was sworn in at a special meeting Friday. He will complete the unexpired term of Dr. David Kabithe, who resigned Nov. 20.

Tyus was the fourth highest vote getter for three board seats in the Nov. 6 election. He stressed improving communications with the community during his campaign.
