Minneapolis Public Schools relaunches superintendent search

Catch up fast: Ed Graff left the role last year. The district initially planned to pick a permanent successor by this summer.

• But in January, the board voted to extend the timeline by a year.

What they're saying: The ideal candidate description approved by the board seeks a seasoned school district leader who can "[foster] unity with the community and serve as a healing presence."

• A salary range is not listed.

What's next: The search firm will collect applications through Nov. 5.

• Interim superintendent Rochelle Cox will continue until a permanent leader is picked.
