Bastrop, Tx–Bastrop school trustees began interviewing candidates Nov. 18 to replace Roderick Emanuel as superintendent of the Bastrop Independent School District. Emanuel resigned the post earlier this year but agreed to continue as acting superintendent until a replacement is hired.
Subsequently the school board hired an executive search firm to screen candidates for the position. The first round of interviews was set for Wednesday at the Bluebonnet Electric Cooperative headquarters on Texas 21 east of Bastrop.
The names of applicants for the opening and those selected for interviews have not been made public.
