The world of K-12 education relies on seamless support systems to ensure that students, educators, and administrators can thrive. Recognizing the growing demand for more cohesive, expansive services, Academic Staffing has officially rebranded itself as ESS Clinical. Here’s what this transformation means for schools, district partners, and the education sector at large.
Why the Rebrand?
The shift to ESS Clinical was driven by a desire to align more closely with the parent brand, ESS, the nation’s largest provider of education personnel. Operating under a unified name not only reinforces a shared mission but also strategically positions the organization to provide even greater value to the districts it serves.
This rebrand represents much more than a name change. With a unified name and infrastructure, we are better positioned to scale services, improve efficiency, and support student success in more communities across the country.
By adopting the ESS name, ESS Clinical emphasizes its ability to deliver comprehensive solutions across clinical, behavioral, and special education needs. These services are provided through a streamlined, nationwide approach.
The Benefits for District Partners
For district partners, the rebrand brings a wealth of advantages while ensuring continuity in service quality. Here’s what schools and districts can expect moving forward.
- Streamlined Support Across the Nation
ESS Clinical’s rebrand simplifies processes for schools by operating under one cohesive name across all contracts. This means easier communication, faster access to resources, and enhanced collaboration between districts and ESS Clinical’s teams.By centralizing its structure, the organization eliminates many of the hurdles that can come with dealing with multiple entities. District leaders can confidently rely on ESS Clinical as a single, trusted source for all clinical and behavioral staffing needs.
- Expanded Resources and Infrastructure
One of the most significant benefits of the rebrand is access to ESS’s broader infrastructure. ESS Clinical now harnesses the advanced resources and systems of its parent company. This enables higher efficiency and a stronger support network.Districts will also benefit from ESS’s nationwide presence, ensuring that they can quickly fill staffing gaps and access specialized expertise to support their unique needs, no matter their location.

A Broader Impact on K-12 Education
The rebrand aligns seamlessly with ESS’s overarching mission to enhance K-12 education through skilled staffing and support. Every day, ESS connects over 100,000 education professionals—substitute teachers, paraprofessionals, and more—with schools across the United States.
