FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 

STATEHOUSE (March 5, 2026) – State Sen. Spencer Deery (R-West Lafayette) welcomed the following local students to the Statehouse who served as Senate pages in January and February.

• Callan Johnson, from Cayuga, attends North Vermillion Jr/Sr High School (pictured with Sen. Greg Goode (R-Terre Haute))
• Cambry Johnson, from Cayuga, attends North Vermillion Jr/Sr High School (pictured with Sen. Greg Goode (R- Terre Haute))
• Wynne Roberts, from West Lafayette, attends West Lafayette High School
• Elijah Thompson, from Marshall, attends Parke Heritage High School

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

"The first goal of our public education system should be to prepare the next generation for self-government," Deery said. "The Senate Page Program allows students to experience state government in action, and I encourage all parents and teachers to help their students take advantage of this opportunity."

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

The 2026 Senate Page program has now ended. Parents interested in learning more about the program should visit www.IndianaSenateRepublicans.com/Page-Program. Applications for the 2027 program will be available at the end of 2026.
