Local Students Invited to Page at the Senate

Why it matters: Young Hoosiers are the future leaders of our state, and the Senate Page Program is a unique and exciting way for students to get a real-life civics lesson.

Through the full-day program, students in grades six through 12 have the opportunity to:

• Tour Indiana’s Statehouse, including an executive branch office;
• Listen to debates from the Senate floor;
• Help staff with age-appropriate tasks; and
• Meet their state senator.

The Senate Page Program begins in January and will run through early April. Pages are scheduled for Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays during the legislative session. Positions fill quickly, so it’s important to apply early.

When you apply and qualify, the Operation Holiday Program can offer $200 for holiday meal plus $300 per dependent child from the Military Family Relief Fund.
