Sen. Byrne welcomes local students to Statehouse

STATEHOUSE (April 21, 2025) – State Sen. Gary Byrne (R-Byrneville) welcomed the following local students to the Statehouse who served as Senate pages in March and April.

  • Samira Beam, from Lanesville, attends Floyd Central High School
  • Abigail Berger, from Floyds Knobs, attends Floyd Central High School
  • Aubrey Curl, from Georgetown, attends North Harrison Middle School
  • Adeline Felten, from New Salisbury, attends North Harrison Middle School
  • Caleb Green, from Pekin, attends William H. Borden Jr./Sr. High School

Pages spend a day at the Statehouse touring the historic building, observing debates from the Senate floor and interacting with their state senator.

"It is always great to meet with students who make the drive to the Statehouse to serve as Senate pages," Byrne said. "The Indiana Senate Page Program is a great way for students to learn about state government and see it in action, and I hope to see many more students participate next year."

Students in grades six through 12 participate in the page program on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays during the legislative session. Groups serve on Wednesdays.

The 2025 Senate Page program has now ended. Parents interested in signing up their child for the 2026 program should visit www.IndianaSenateRepublicans.com/Page-Program at the end of 2025 for more information. More information about the Senate Page Program is also available on this site.
