STATEHOUSE (Dec. 6, 2023) — The Indiana Senate is now accepting applications for the 2024 Senate Page Program, said State Sen. Jeff Raatz (R-Richmond).
Through the full-day program, students in grades six through 12 tour Indiana’s Statehouse, listen to debates and help staff with age-appropriate tasks. Students also have the opportunity to meet their state senator.
"As chair of the Senate Committee on Education and Career Development, it is always encouraging to see young Hoosiers learning about our state government at the Statehouse through the Senate Page Program." Raatz said. "Students from Senate District 27 should take advantage of this great opportunity to gain experiential civic education beyond the classroom."
The Senate Page Program will begin in January and run through February. 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. Positions fill quickly, so it is important to apply early.
