The school board is expected to announce Green later Wednesday as the sole finalist for superintendent. He will take over for Michael Thurmond, who has led the district since February 2013.
Green is in the middle of a five-year contract with Kansas City. He started there in August 2011 as interim superintendent and took the job permanently in 2012.
The Kansas City district has about 16,700 students; DeKalb County has about 100,000 students.
