STATEHOUSE (Nov. 25, 2024) — The Indiana Senate will begin accepting applications for the 2025 Senate Page Program on Sunday, Dec. 1, said State Sen. Michael Crider (R-Greenfield).
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.
"The Page Program is a great way for Hoosier students to learn more about their state government and how they can serve their state in the future," Crider said. "I always enjoy meeting the students from Senate District 28 who take the time out of their busy school schedules to visit the Statehouse. I encourage all eligible students to apply if they have any interest in learning about Indiana's legislature."
The Senate Page Program will begin in January and is expected to run through early April. 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. Indiana law permits eligible students to serve as a Senate Page one day per legislative session and receive an excused absence from school for their participation. Positions fill quickly, so it is important to apply early.
When completing the application, students will be able to request the day they would like to page. Once the application is submitted, the Senate Page Office will reach out to confirm the paging date and ensure all required participation forms are signed.
