MCS superintendent finalist Dr. Kriner Cash has been named a finalist for the superintendency job in Cincinnati.
Cash was one of five finalists selected last night by the Cincinnati school board, which is looking for a replacement for its retiring superintendent and hopes to have a new person in place by the end of the month.
Before joining Miami-Dade County Schools in 2004, Cash spent nearly 10 years as superintendetnt in Martha's Vineyard.
During an interview with The Memphis Board of Education Wednesday morning, Cash affirmed that he's most interested in the Memphis City Schools job. Under his leadership, he believes the district could win the Broad Prize for Urban Education in about three years.
Cash is also a finalist for the superintendency of the Waltham (Mass.) school district.
Memphians get to take a crack at Cash and fellow finalist Dr. Nicholas Gledich tonight in the Board Auditorium from 6 to 8 p.m.
The Memphis Board of Education will select a superintendent next Tuesday, June 10.
