Project Transformation Rio Texas (PT) is committed to supporting children in their love of reading and academic growth. Our Summer Camps and Virtual After-school Reading Buddies serve children grades K-5 in all three geographies.
Summer Registration will open March 19th.
Summer Camps
Project Transformation’s summer day camp programs for elementary students focus on enriching the mind, body, and spirit. We place a unique focus on improving literacy and social-emotional development. Project Transformation operates eight-week summer day camps serving children entering grades 1-6 in under-resourced neighborhoods. Each day, children read one-to-one with community volunteers and participate in activity-based literacy intervention. Children also participate in daily enrichment activities including recreational play and exercise, creative arts, and interaction with our young adults and community volunteers, who inspire and encourage youth daily.
*Priority given to children who qualify for free or reduced lunch.

Reading Allstars (Virtual) for Grades K-5
Project Transformation’s after-school Reading Buddies serves children grades K-5 in all three geographies.
Reading Allstars virtual sessions for K-5 take place on Zoom. Families choose one 30-minute session for their child to participate in weekly. Once registered, Project Transformation will send the Zoom information to each family, and the Zoom information will be the same for every session. During Reading Allstars virtual sessions volunteers listen to participants read, ask questions, and offer strategies for reading help. Volunteers and the PT staff work to help participants maintain or improve their reading level and love of literacy throughout the school year. The Reading Allstars virtual program runs from September 12, 2023, through December 14, 2023, and from January 9, 2024, through May 9, 2024.
Session Options (all times in CST):
Tuesdays 4:30pm-5:00pm
Tuesdays 5:00pm-5:30pm
Thursdays 4:30pm-5:00pm
Thursdays 5:00pm-5:30pm
