STATEHOUSE (Dec. 8, 2023) — The Indiana Senate is now accepting applications for the 2024 Senate Page Program, said State Sen. Ed Charbonneau (R-Valparaiso).  

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.  

“Meeting students interested in learning how state government works is one of my favorite duties as a state senator,” Charbonneau said. “The Senate Page Program grants children the opportunity to learn about their civic duties and the role they can play in the legislative process, which is why I recommend this program to all eligible students.” 

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.
