Nonsense from McGinley Shill Fraser


  • "Individual members [of the CCSD Board of Trustees] have zero authority over anyone, including the Superintendant [sic]." That includes your non-existent authority over other Board members, Chris.

  • " Staff in schools or at the district offices are placed in a very awkward position when a board member directs or asks them to do something without their bosses [sic] knowledge or direction. . . their boss is the Superintendant [sic]." Now, which is it: directs or asks? Do something such as answer a question? Chris, you mean that every employee in every school and at 75 Calhoun must ask permission of McGinley before answering a question? No wonder she has so many associates.

  • "If the majority of the Board does not support an individual Board members [sic] idea or request, no employee of the District is required to do anything about it." Chris, a big difference exists between an "idea" and a "request." As a commercial real estate agent, you should know it.

  • "9 [sic] people providing different directions to any employee creates chaos and destroys the chain of command, not to mention takes them [sic] away from their [sic] primary job." You, of course, can show that all nine Board members have done just that? or are you exaggerating for effect? Or is this simply the "slippery slope" fallacy?

  • "Any ideas, complaints, concerns, etc [sic] be directed to me and I will relay them to the Superintendant [sic] as called for in the contract." Ah, the gatekeeper! It seems that Board members have fewer rights that the general public.

He's not just a real estate agent, he's a real estate broker with advanced professional designations. On top of that he's president and CEO of a major commercial firm. Scary, huh?

The school board chairman looks like his loyalty is not where it should be. Chris Fraser should recuse himself from every real estate deal CCSD is considering. How would it look if it turns out he was involved in the land purchases for Zucker Middle School? Bill Lewis and Nancy McGinley are already discussing the sale of the old Wando campus. It is doubtful Board Chairman Chris Fraser wouldn't be interested in a future private development of that major commercial site in Mt. Pleasant. On second thought, we so much private interest at stake for Fraser, maybe he should just resign from the board altogether.
