Three group interviews will be held, two groups of seven and one group of eight, with the League of Women Voters Grosse Pointe acting as the moderators. 

3. The Grosse Pointe Public School Board will meet beginning at 6 p.m. Wednesday at Grosse Pointe North High School to make a decision about which of the 22 applicants wishing to serve on the board will be the ultimate choice. The decision must be made within 30 days of the date of vacancy, meaning the board has to make a decision this week because of when former board member Brendan Walsh provided his immediate notice.
