Christina School District Committed to Transformation of Glasgow High School and Stubbs Elementary School

Wilmington, DE – The Christina School District remains committed to the process of transformation at both Glasgow High School and Stubbs Elementary. We are continuing along the path set out by the Partnership Zone plan and are confident our efforts are aligned with the goals of radically changing these two schools. The DOE’s decision to freeze funding will ultimately put that process on hold. The ongoing commitment of the Christina School District demands that we must proceed without delay. We are anxious for the State to revisit its decision to freeze federal funds marked for these reforms so that we may serve the students of Christina per the state approved Partnership Zone plan supported by Delaware regulation. We look forward to working with the DOE and the CEA to expeditiously resolve this issue on behalf of the children of Christina.
