Following the surprise announcement on Friday that Superintendent Art Tate will resign, the Davenport school board will hold a special meeting Tuesday. And the only item on the agenda is the appointment of an interim superintendent.
The board is scheduled to meet at 4:30 pm.
Doctor Tate was originally scheduled to retire next June, and the board had begun the process of picking a replacement - hiring a consultant, setting up a series of public meetings for local residents to submit suggestions, and also asking people to fill out a survey on the district's website.
No announcement was made about any possible changes in the search process.
