Jones, who replaced interim human resources director Ron Lankford in July, is from Smithville and had been h. r. director there between 2013 and 2017.
The Smithville district issued the following news release announcing her hiring:
The Board approved the hiring of Ashley Jones, a familiar face and name, to return to SSD as the Director of Human Resources.
"When I attended the Smithville Sesquicentennial in October, it was with a warm heart that I observed tradition and compassion, and I felt the Warrior pride," said Jones. "Confirmation that Smithville School District is a very special place that has my heart!"
Jones will rejoin SSD from Joplin, where she is currently the Director of Human Resources/Systems Support. Prior to Joplin, she was the Director of Human Resources for SSD from 2013-2017.
" We are very familiar with the quality of Mrs. Jones' work and her spending a school year in a different, much larger district will only add to her experiences and knowledge base. We are pleased to welcome her home," said Dr. Todd Schuetz, Superintendent of Schools.
Jones received a Bachelor of Business Adminstration degree from William Woods University and a Bachelor of Business Administration degree and Master of Art in Teaching from the University of Central Missouri. She is currently working on her Professional in Human Resources from the HR Certification Institute.
"It is with great excitement that I rejoin the Warrior Family as Director of Human Resources. It is such an honor to serve alongside an inspiring community of learners including a dedicated faculty, staff and administrators, amazing students, an excellent Board of Education, and a supportive community," said Jones. "I look forward to our future together! Once a Warrior, always a Warrior!"
