ESS/Source4Teachers is an outsourcing company for school districts. You need to start by going to their
website and see if you're in an area where they have client school districts. The advantage of working for a company like ESS is you apply with them and they can place you any of the school districts where they have a contract in your geographic area. According to their website, they have 700 school districts in 24 states. They can also provide an emergency certificate if your state allows people without a teaching certificate to sub.
ESS is not the only company that outsources substitute teachers. Kelly Educational Staffing is another big national company and there are many smaller regional firms.
Many school districts do not use an outsourcing company and you will have to apply to each individual school to sub for them. Each district has their own individual requirements in addition to the state requirements.
