She lives in Texas, and Jones said it is just too difficult to take care of her and still do his job as superintendent.
Jones has been a controversial figure to say the least.
Anyway, if anybody wants that job of his, it is open.

Even with the support of the School Board and much of the business community, Jones was not without his faults.
When Jones refused to release preliminary graduation data to the public, critics called him out for being transparent only when it suited him.
Others were skeptical of Jones' highly paid consultants, pricey technology initiatives and close ties with the "education reform" movement sweeping the nation.
Some criticized Jones for a slower-than-expected rate of improvement. Others criticized Jones for moving too fast with his reform efforts.
Jones — the district's second black superintendent — received some of his highest accolades and harshest criticisms from members of his own community.
I expect a Broadie to get the job.
Some juicy comments follow the LVRJ report.
