Fourth generation Nebraskan raised on homesteading stories
A fourth generation Nebraskan, Scott Kleeb grew up listening to his grandfather's homesteading stories and learned the values that would come to shape his life. Scott learned the value of hard work and self-reliance, but he also learned that Nebraskans
depend on each, in good times and bad. This simple idea--born on the hard plains of Nebraska in the 19th century and passed down through generations of Kleebs--called Scott to teaching as his profession and drives his call to public service today.
