About Jhone
- It took me a while to finish college as I worked full-time and tried to find my niche— I ultimately decided on mathematics and finished my degree in eight years.
- After earning my degree in mathematics, I started my career as a middle school math teacher.
- I found a lot of opportunities within the Clark County School District in Nevada—I worked as a training teacher, assistant superintendent of curriculum and instruction, and chief technology officer.
- I then got the opportunity to go to New York and work for the state’s Department of Education as the senior deputy commissioner for education.
- I spent three years doing that before coming back home to Nevada to serve as the superintendent of public instruction.
- I still love being in the classroom and will occasionally take on teaching opportunities in addition to my role as superintendent of public instruction.
