We are counting down to the start of the new school year! We want to share some important information to help ensure a smooth transition for you and your child.
(South Kansas City) Students at Ervin elementary school received new backpacks to start the year thanks to former Royals' President of baseball Operations Dayton Moore. The longtime Royals executive has served the community over the years through his See You in the Major League foundation. One of the mentors in the C-10 Mentoring and Leadership Program, funded through Dayton Moore's foundation, is currently mentoring a senior, Trey Ulberg, a senior at William Chrisman High School. Trey's senior project is to raise funds to provide Ervin with backpacks and school supplies two times per year. On August 17, Trey delivered backpacks and supplies to Ervin.
