Around 40 property owners gathered at the Shue-Medill Middle School near Newark this week to get filled in on a referendum about the impact of a $16 million referendum for the Christina School District.
During the three hour meeting local officials laid out a vision that included a medical sciences program at Glasgow High School.
If the referendum does get voter approval the district will replace the 78 teachers who were laid off after the failure of the last referendum.
But some of those in attendance said that they did not even realize that there was a referendum until they got a robocall.
Others expressed concern about what they considered a lack of transparency by the school district about how the money would be spent.
But the school officials countered that there is a volunteer citizens committee that has been working on how the funds will be allocated.
The vote is scheduled for March 23rd.
