Welcome

   Welcome  Charleston Voters,  This blog is intended to equip voters with information on the Charleston School Board candidates so that they may make a well-informed decision next time they cast a vote. School Board Candidates do not necessarily need to disclose any information, but if candidates choose to provide information, oftentimes, this information is difficult to find. This blog is not perfect in any way, shape, or form, but its main purpose is to provide a one-stop-shop of information on the CCSD School Board Election.

What Is The Charleston Coalition for Kids?

The Charleston Coalition for Kids  was founded by  major business tycoons such as Anita Zucker, CEO of the InterTech Group, and Sherman Financial Group founder Ben Navarro. It  is an  organization backed by some well-respected community leaders, but many oppose this coalition and dub it as "dark money". Its goal is to provide a good education to all children, however, this coalition supports the privatization of schools. This year, the coalition is pouring money into the campaigns of 5 Charleston School Board Board candidates: Courtney Waters, Hunter Schimpff, Lauren Herterich, Charles Monteith, and Chris Fraser. Essentially, t he wealthy are using their financial influence to elect candidates in education races who support the movement to find alternatives to publicly funded and governed school districts.
