FORT LAUDERDALE, FL — More than two dozen candidates applied to be the next Broward County Public Schools superintendent, according to a list published by the district Friday.
The list contains a number of internal and external candidates, including Valerie Wanza, an associate superintendent who served as the district’s interim superintendent for about a week between the time the school board and former superintendent Vickie Cartwright mutually separated and the district brought on Earlean Smiley as interim superintendent.
