An agenda has been posted for 7 p.m. on April 24 with the only items on the agenda: Discuss superintendent finalist candidates and name a lone finalist for the position. The district has to wait 21 days before making a final vote to hire.
This past week the board conducted interviews with three candidates on three separate nights.
