STATEHOUSE (Dec. 1, 2022) — The Indiana Senate is now accepting applications for the 2023 Senate Page Program, said State Sen. Ed Charbonneau (R-Valparaiso).
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.
"I always look forward to meeting with students and introducing them to state government through the Senate Page Program," Charbonneau said. "Showing children how they can be civically engaged citizens is one of the most fulfilling duties as a senator, and I hope those eligible apply for this rewarding opportunity."
The Senate Page Program will begin in January and run through early 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.
