Bexar County has refreshed its BiblioTech “Ride & Read” program allowing VIA riders to access thousands of free eBook and Audiobook titles with the BiblioTech app.

VIA Metropolitan Transit and BiblioTech Public Library first partnered in 2016 to bring Bexar County’s all-digital public library to commuters. The program continues VIA’s support of BiblioTech’s mission to enhance education and literacy, promote reading as recreation, and equip residents with the necessary tools to thrive in our modern landscape.

BiblioTech Digital Library is the first all-digital public library in the United States. The library can be accessed 24/7 on mobile devices, using VIA’s free 4G LTE WiFi, available on all buses and at all transit centers.

Communities In Schools programs surround students with a community of support, empowering them to stay in school and achieve in life. Our evidence-based approach, adapted to meet each community’s unique needs, is the basis for our success.

Basic Needs: A student cannot focus in the classroom if he or she is hungry, cold or tired, or cannot see the board. Site coordinators see to it that students' basic needs are met each day.

Enrichment: Our Site coordinators enroll students in a wide variety of after-school and summer programs, field trips and youth conferences to help them gain experience that is essential to meeting college and career goals.

Academic Assistance: Our site coordinators work hard to ensure that students have the resources to progress academically. From providing students with tutors to finding and creating quiet spaces where students can study, we do whatever it takes to create an optimal learning environment for our students.

Life Skills: Through one-on-one workshops, team building, and guest speakers, we work with students to develop social-emotional learning, character education, social skills building, and conflict resolution.

Behavioral Interventions: Many of our students face and overcome difficult obstacles in their lives. However, their survival skills aren’t always effective in the classroom or in the workplace. Our program teaches students positive ways to cope with anger, conflict resolution, and other strategies to keep them focused on school.

Family Engagement: Site coordinators connect families with counselors and social workers to make sure that home is a healthy, nurturing environment where a student can feel safe.

Our District is excited to announce the 2023-2024 Connected Classroom, an iPad (K 12) and Chromebook (3-12) lending program that enables students in K 12 grades to have a designated device for use both at school and at home. Through this initiative, we can ensure that our students have access to the tools they need to further their education and thrive in the digital age. iPads and Chromebooks are the ideal tools for students to complete assignments, research projects, and collaborate with peers because they are portable, durable, and simple to use. 

Checking out a device for your student ensures that they will have access to technology and the vast resources it provides to enhance their learning throughout the school day as well as when they are at home.  These devices are governed by the NEISD Internet content filter when connected to any wireless network, which helps to protect students from inappropriate content while providing access to a range of instructional resources and apps that enhance learning.

Every campus has Internet Access in the parking lots available from 6:00 AM  to 11:00 PM if access is needed.
