STATEHOUSE (Dec. 3, 2018) — The Indiana Senate is now accepting applications for the 2019 Senate Page Program, said State Sen. Michael Crider (R-Greenfield).
Through the full-day program, students in grades six through 12 can tour Indiana’s Statehouse, listen to debates and help staff with age-appropriate tasks. Students also have the opportunity to meet with their state senator.
“The Senate Page Program is a wonderful way for local students to learn more about Indiana’s government and how bills become laws,” Crider said. “I encourage the students in our community to take advantage of all this program has to offer and apply today.”
The Senate Page Program will begin in January and run through mid-April. Positions fill quickly, so it is important to apply early. Pages are scheduled for Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays during the legislative session. They begin their day at 8:30 a.m. and are dismissed at 3:30 p.m. Groups serve together on Wednesdays. Serving as a page is considered an excused absence from school.
