Oath of office

An oath of office is like a promise or pledge that someone makes when they start a new job in a really important role, like being a police officer, a judge, or even the president of a country!

It's kind of like raising your hand and saying, "I promise to do my best and be honest and fair in this job."

When someone takes an oath of office, it helps to show that they are serious about their new job and that they understand how important it is to be responsible and trustworthy.

So, it's like promising to do your best and be a good person when you get a new job!
