Interviews would begin by the end of August, according to the spokeswoman.
The deadline for applications was Monday.
The School Board's Envisioning Committee released a report last month offering its opinions on what type of leader the district needs.
The main conclusions reached were that the new superintendent must be someone with professional experience, a consensus builder and collaborator, a leader, someone who can handle change properly, a person who celebrates diversity and someone who is a visionary.
Current Superintendent Ed Pratt-Dannals will retire in December.
