About Jonathan and his career
Jonathan B Jones is a 25-year veteran of the Technology and Public School fields. Starting at an early age, and becoming one of the youngest Information Technology Supervisors in the state, has managed numerous large programs and projects. These include renovating 20 public schools, upgrading and managing large enterprise scale networks and departments, and developing and deploying large-scale budgets to ensure efficient and rapid delivery of services.
​
His niche has always been cost savings and creating long-term solutions for schools and taxpayers. Not only focusing on purchasing but projected cost savings and total cost of ownership dollars. Limiting the impact of technology funding on local budgets by increasing alternate avenues of funding such as lease purchases, grant acquisitions, and co-op purchases with other agencies to reduce overall costs.
