| | RED CLAY CONSOLIDATED SCHOOL DISTRICT (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08) |
 | | The county district was divided into four racially balanced districts, Brandywine, Christina, Colonial, and Red Clay, because it was felt that smaller districts would be easier to manage and be more responsive to the local community. |
 | | Although the District Court approved the plan, the new districts were required to report on racial composition of students, suspensions, arrests, expulsion, staff, special education, dropouts, bilingual education, demographic changes, enrollment projection, and students who attend schools other than normally assigned. |
 | | School taxes are collected on a county-wide basis, as they were under the New Castle County School District, and then allocated to each district according to their number of students. |
