BROWARD COUNTY, Fla. — Broward County Public Schools officially has a permanent superintendent.

School board members on Wednesday selected Dr. Vickie Cartwright, who's been serving as interim superintendent since last August, for the top spot.

Cartwright took over as superintendent when Robert Runcie stepped down last year after he was arrested for perjury.
