The superintendent position at Edinburg Consolidated Independent School District remains vacant.

The school board held a six-hour special meeting on Saturday to select a candidate, but the meeting ended without a decision.

The meeting comes after former Superintendent Mario H. Salinas announced his retirement in March.

The school board said they would go into a second round of interviews. Once the sole finalist for the position is announced, they have to wait 21 days before officially hiring the candidate.
