I am currently a resident of South Carolina, but I plan on moving to Birmingham in several weeks. I would like, very much, to be a substitute teacher for the Birmingham school district, but I do not know the best way to apply. I have found very little information online regarding substitute teaching in Alabama.
I have never been a substitute teacher before and I do not have a certificate, but I do have a Bachelors Degree and I would like to earn a Masters of Science in Education eventually. Must one apply through an agency or service? May one apply online or is it necessary to contact someone by phone or by mail? I found an application on the Alabama Youth Services website, but I was not sure if it was for the entire state or if one must apply to the region in which they desire to work.
Please help me out if you know any information about this topic!

Galen...
It is very easy to become a sub here in Alabama. All you have to do is contact the district you wish to work in, by phone, and find out when they finger print and so forth. I am a sub in Butler Co AL and I love it. I am working on my certification at the present and hope to be teaching next year. I wish you good luck!
