Trustees will interview Harry Cheff, currently the superintendent of the Colstrip School District, at 9 a.m.
George Linthicum, superintendent of the Target Range School District near Missoula, will be interviewed at 1 p.m.
Interviews take place in the Bigfork Elementary conference room. They are open to the public, but no one except trustees will be allowed to ask candidates questions during the interviews.
Community members and Bigfork School District staff will have a chance to talk with the candidates this afternoon during public forums. A forum for Cheff will be held at 3:15 p.m.; Linthicum’s turn comes at 4:30 p.m.
The forums will take place in the high school music room.
Cheff, Linthicum and Ronald Windom, currently the superintendent of Melrose Municipal Schools in Melrose, N.M., are the contenders to replace Russ Kinzer, who announced in January that he will retire June 30.
Kinzer has been Bigfork’s superintendent for 10 years.
Trustees plan to interview Windom at 9 a.m. April 7.
