The Senate Page Program

The Senate Page Program

Wednesday, December 10, 2014

Do you know a student who may be interested in a firsthand experience with the Indiana Senate? Students in grades six through 12 can submit requests to serve as a page with the Senate during the Indiana General Assembly’s 2015 legislative session.

The Senate page program gives students the opportunity to:

  • Tour the Statehouse;
  • Interact with state officials;
  • Watch important policy debates in the Senate Chamber; and
  • Assist their state senator during session.

Serving as a page is considered an excused absence from school. The day begins with orientation at 8:30 a.m., and pages are dismissed at 3:30 p.m. Students break for lunch prior to the Senate session.

The program runs from January through April. Students may serve as pages on Mondays, Tuesdays or Thursdays. Groups serve together on Wednesdays. Due to limited space, applicants need to submit materials as soon as possible.

Students are welcome to apply with siblings and friends!

Students can apply online at www.IndianaSenateRepublicans.com/page-program or send a letter to Indiana Senate, 200 W. Washington St., Indianapolis, IN 46204.

Applications need to include the student’s name, address, home telephone number, age and school affiliation or home-school status.

After applications are processed, students receive confirmation of his or her scheduled date to serve.

If you have questions, please call 800-382-9467.
