The search for a new Birmingham City Schools superintendent is drawing criticism from members of the Birmingham Board of Education. Members gathered in protest recently after the five finalists for the superintendent position were announced. Among their concerns are the process by which the finalists were chosen and the finalists themselves. More about this from Nick Patterson, editor of the weekly newspaper Weld.
