Atlanta’s next superintendent will be named in April, according to a timeline set by the Atlanta Board of Education on Monday.

The Superintendent Search Committee will interview candidates in January and February, and then the full school board will choose from finalists after they’re announced in March.

The incoming superintendent is expected to start working for Atlanta Public Schools in June as current Superintendent Erroll Davis prepares to retire.
