Perfect: Applications available for Indiana Senate Page Program

Applications now being accepted

STATEHOUSE (Dec. 1, 2022) — The Indiana Senate is now accepting applications for the 2023 Senate Page Program, said State Sen. Chip Perfect (R-Lawrenceburg).

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.

"Showing young Hoosiers how senators from across the state come together to debate and address issues facing Indiana is an important step in teaching them about their state government," Perfect said. "This is why the Senate Page Program is a valuable learning experience for students looking to become civically engaged."

The Senate Page Program will begin in January and run through early April. Positions fill quickly, so it is important to apply early. 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.
