Alex Jones stresses technology expertise and multigenerational ties in bid for trustee seat
Summary
Alex Jones told trustees he is multigenerational in the valley, has leadership in local organizations and would prioritize technology readiness and long-term investments if appointed to the board.
Alex Jones told the board he has deep family roots in the valley, described his household’s long history in the community and framed his candidacy around technology experience and long-term thinking for district investments. He said he would "show up ready" and emphasized a collaborative approach if selected.
Jones cited his familiarity with current technology trends and the likely impact of artificial intelligence on education, saying the board would benefit from someone who can translate technology issues into practical district decisions. He said, "I'm very, very familiar with current technology trends, tools, where things are headed," and argued that technology, infrastructure and security investments should be part of district planning.
Trustees acknowledged Jones’s strengths during deliberations, but after discussion the board nominated and then appointed Brian Robinson to the seat.
