About Us
My Village Library is a mentorship program offered to students and families in the Hurst-Euless-Bedford ISD. Students meet weekly with friends and mentors who embody or motto: “Excite! Prepare! Empower! and Release Students as Lifelong Learners”. We have in-school partnerships with targeted campuses as well as an after-school program, at My Village Library’s home “The Hub” for students who need extra support and confidence in school work.
The Hurst-Euless-Bedford ISD located near DFW airport, is recognized as the most diverse school district in Texas. Language barriers, homelessness, broken families, and food insecurity are the driving needs that led to the creation of a safe place for students and families to build community – a place to focus on learning with success in a stress free environment. It is your generous support of your time, talent and treasures that allows this place to live.
Our Program
Our main goals are to SHOW UP FOR THE STUDENTS, SUPPORT THE TEACHERS, and BUILD RELATIONSHIPS. These align with the HEB ISD strategic pillars including: Student Success, Employee Success, Family and Community Partnerships. MVL has both after-school and in-school mentoring programs.
Parents and Educators
As partners with HEBISD, our volunteers are trained to work with students by reading books that align with curriculum. This allows for increased vocabulary, comprehension, prediction and conversation. We would be honored to help find and prepare volunteers to help in your school. Let’s talk.
Volunteers
“It takes a village”. We are a village full of amazing people who bring a plethora of assets and are willing to support one another.
Why Our Work Matters
Afterschool mentoring programs like ours play a critical role in:
Improving academic performance, especially in reading and math
Enhancing students’ social and emotional development
Increasing parent engagement, particularly among families where English is not the first language
Building self-esteem and positive behavior in school and daily life
By helping students succeed academically, we also help them participate more fully in school activities like sports, band, and academic clubs.
