Kelley Baker came to Harding & Shultz after serving as legal counsel for the Nebraska Association of School Boards for seven years. He brought his interest in schools with him, and now represents more than 100 school districts and education institutions throughout Nebraska. Kelley says that education law is a delight because he works with excellent board members and administrators, and a challenge because the discipline encompasses a broad variety of legal areas. Kelley applied and enhanced his knowledge by teaching graduate level education law courses for the Department of Education Administration at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln for six semesters, and by continuing to lecture to graduate classes at University of Nebraska campuses and state colleges. When away from the office, Kelley spends his spare time with his family. Because of his interest in older adults, he serves as the president of the Board of Directors of the Seniors Foundation, an organization dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for older Nebraskans.
