₠The Christina School District is locate in Wilmington, Delaware, is the largest public school system in Delaware. It was created on July 1, 1981 from the New Castle County School District. In 2006 the Christina School District held a referendum, which, if successful, would change the entire district starting from the 2006-2007 school year. New middle schools would have opened, Bancroft Intermediate School (currently K-6) would completely turn into a middle school, and many other changes would have occurred. It was predicted and thought that the referendum would be a success. However, on January 26, 2006, the day of the voting, more people voted for it not to be passed. There were three options. On the first option, 7,719 people voted, only 2,921 of them for it.
