Top superintendent candidate emerges for MPUSD

And for those Mary White or Dan Albert fans, it's not an internal candidate.

After two days of interviews over the weekend, trustees with the Monterey Peninsula Unified School District have honed in one administrator they believe may be a good fit for the district. They're not releasing the name yet because three trustees will visit the candidate's district on Wednesday -- that's how I know it's not an internal candidate.

On Thursday, a report will be given to the entire board, and if the report is satisfactory, the board will offer a contract, Board President Curt Parker said late Sunday. After the candidate accepts the contract, trustees will vote on April 22 in open session whether to award it. That's when the name will finally become public.

Or maybe I'll find out before then... Stay tuned...
