The School Board of Alachua County postponed its selection of an interim superintendent of schools at a special meeting on Monday and scheduled another meeting for Nov. 4 to continue discussing candidates. The board seeks to replace former Superintendent Shane Andrew, whose contract the board terminated on Oct. 15 after a 3-to-2 vote.

The P.K. Yonge School Advisory Council met Tuesday night to discuss the proposal to make the school’s historically inclusive admissions process more selective.

After a lengthy discussion and amendment process, the board passed the revised contract 3-2.

An Alachua County elementary school teacher was arrested early Sunday morning on charges of driving under the influence, possession of bath salts and resisting arrest without violence.
