The Fargo School Board zeroed in on Bismarck assistant superintendent Rick Buresh to become the next superintendent for the Fargo School District, but it will take a site visit to seal the deal.
The board voted 9-0 late Friday night to arrange the visit by four of its members before it votes to offer Buresh a contract. That vote will come at the next regular board meeting May 22, board President Laura Carley said.
The board decision came relatively quickly after three days of interviews with candidates seeking to take over for Superintendent David Flowers.
Flowers is leaving to become superintendent in Hutchinson, Kan.
