CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCSC) - A Charleston County board member confronted an ad campaign Friday by the Charleston Coalition for Kids.
Current board member and candidate, Chris Collins told reporters that the ad, which points out past votes he's made on raising board member salaries, takes the situation out of context by inferring that his salary on the board could pay for several new teachers.
"There's no school board member in the state of South Carolina that makes a decent salary. None. You don't do it for the salary. You do it for the community," Collins said.
