The Office of Academic Services serves as the foundation for instruction in Leon County Schools.  The department supports teachers and administrators through strategic professional development, on-site support for teachers, analysis and distribution of assessment results, and the dissemination of information about state legislative initiatives.  Teaching and Learning also provide information to families and the general public regarding supplemental instructional resources available in the community and for use at home.  Assistant Superintendent Billy Epting and his staff have made it their mission to serve as an integral part of each institution in the district, providing whatever services are needed to ensure that Leon County Schools’ students receive the best education possible.
