Anything that will get me experience.
I would guess that the schools do it themselves. I would call a couple and ask and if that is the case and you want to work send a short letter to each middle school AD and introduce yourself and relay your willingness to work. This is how I got started and I believe I shaved several years off the 'ladder' by being proactive rather than reactive.
