Kansas All-Star Scholars Fund Provides More Opportunities For Mulvane Students
The USD 263 Mulvane School District has recently received over $42,000 from the Kansas All-Star Scholars Fund to be used for instructional and classroom equipment. The Mulvane School District and school districts in Sumner County were granted funds based on each district’s student population. The Kansas All-Star Scholars Fund Committee strives to improve student opportunities in the areas of S.T.E.A.M. (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, & Math). Since 2012, the Committee has consistently provided funds for numerous instructional improvements in Mulvane Schools including 3-D printers, Computer Aided Drafting equipment, Computer Science equipment, Chromebooks, School Safety equipment (Jacob Kits), and Science Lab equipment.
With a portion of the recently received funds from the Kansas All-Star Scholars Fund, Mulvane Schools plan to expand technology for the 1:1 student Chromebook initiative and provide for individual classroom needs throughout the district.
USD 263 – Mulvane Schools sincerely appreciates the consideration and generosity of the Kansas All-Star Scholars Fund Committee. From the Committee’s support and partnership, students in Mulvane Schools are provided with many enhanced opportunities for learning.
The donation is part of Kansas Star Casino’s commitment to the Kansas All-Star Scholars Fund.

The Fund seeks to support education and students, benefit local businesses, attract new families to the area and spur economic development, all benefitting Sumner County.
