As one Overland Park native to another... here's what I can tell you about K-state...
First of all, make sure you put stuff down youre proud of! That will make it easier to talk about if someone brings it up. However since your going to K-state it won't matter that much as there will be so many girls going through.
Don't put down information about your parents except for any sorority legacies you may have. People at K-state will have a good enough idea of what your parents do/financial background just by knowing what HS you went to in Johnson County (you've got that whole stereotype going for you anyway). Plus it's very likely that some girls will know you or of you from HS anyways. (BTW what HS did you go to?)
Other things to include are leadership roles you've had, HS GPA if it's pretty good - also your class rank if it was top 10% otherwise just put that you were in the top X%. ACT Score probably should be on there as well.
Obviously, all your extracurriculars should be there. Work experience is up to you, if you worked someplace cool or girly (Bath and Bodyworks comes to mind) then it'd be appropriate, but if it was just McDonald's or the like then I see no reason.
Finally, don't use abbreivations unless they are really well known and recognized. Going through the Fraternity Rush Apps at Nebraska showed me the importance of that, as not everyone will know what ABC or XYZ means...
