BOSTON — The interview process begins Monday as Boston Public Schools searches for its new superintendent.

Marie Izquierdo, the chief academic officer for schools in Miami-Dade County, Florida, will appear before several panels Monday.

She'll meet community members and school committees, as well as parents and teachers.

Two other candidates, Brenda Cassellius and Oscar Santos, will also be interviewed this week.

The person who is chosen will replace interim-superintendent Laura Perille, who has been on the job since Tommy Chang stepped down last July.
