INDIANAPOLIS — Indiana State Senator Mike Bohacek welcomed Ciniah Llovet, from Culver, who is homeschooled, and Gabe Smith, from Bremen, who attends Leo Jr./Sr. High School, to the Statehouse as Senate Pages in March.
Pages spend a day at the Statehouse touring the historic building, observing debates from the Senate floor and interacting with their state senator.
“The Indiana Senate Page program is a great way for young Hoosiers to learn more about the legislative process and visit our state’s capitol,” Bohacek said. “I encourage any eligible student in my district with an interest in government to sign up.”
Students in grades six through 12 participate in the page program on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays during the legislative session. Groups serve on Wednesdays.
