Three finalists will be interviewed Tuesday for the job of Berrien RESA superintendent. Dr. Kevin Ivers is retiring at the end of this school year, and 11 candidates applied to succeed him. The Berrien RESA Board of Education will interview Lapeer Public Schools superintendent Matthew Wandrie, Berrien RESA assistant superintendent Eric Hoppstock, and Lakeview Public Schools superintendent Blake Prewitt on February 4. The interviews will be at the Berrien RESA Administrative Conference Center starting at 1 p.m. Board president Cathy Bair says they are planning to have Ivers’ successor hired by the middle of February “in order to provide a smooth transition of leadership for the new school year.”

• 1 p.m. – Matthew Wandrie, Superintendent, Lapeer Public Schools
• 2:30 p.m. – Eric Hoppstock, Assistant Superintendent, Berrien RESA
