Johnson: Applications open for Indiana Senate Page Program
STATEHOUSE (Dec. 13, 2023) — The Indiana Senate is now accepting applications for the 2024 Senate Page Program, said State Sen. Tyler Johnson (R-Leo).
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.
"Serving as a Senate page is a unique opportunity for young Hoosiers to expand their civic education beyond the classroom by touring the Statehouse and seeing the legislative process in person," Johnson said. "In fact, I myself served as a Senate page for former State Sen. Charles "Bud" Meeks. I encourage all young Hoosiers interested in state government to participate."
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.
