Sen. Raatz welcomes local students to Statehouse

STATEHOUSE (Feb. 26, 2025) – State Sen. Jeff Raatz (R-Richmond) welcomed Knightstown resident and Knightstown Community High School student Vance Toth, (pictured with State Sen. Spencer Deery (R-West Lafayette)), to the Statehouse where he served as Senate page in January.

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

"I always appreciate meeting with students that make up our communities," Raatz said. "It's rewarding to show young Hoosiers how the legislative process works, and I recommend the Senate page program to any student interested in state government."

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