INDIANAPOLIS - State Sen. Randy Maxwell (R-Guilford) welcomed the following local students to the Statehouse who served as Senate pages in March and April.

  • Audrey Engel, from Lawrenceburg, attends East Central Middle School
  • Esta Taylor, from Rising Sun, attends Huckleberry Hill Academy
  • Beckett Wagner, from Lawrenceburg, attends Saint Lawrence School

Pages spent a day at the Statehouse touring the historic building, observing debates from the Senate floor and interacting with their state senator.

"Serving as a page in the Indiana Senate is a great experience for students interested in learning more about their state government," Maxwell said. "Meeting local students serving as pages and answering their questions is one of my favorite parts of the legislative session, and I encourage any interested and eligible students to join us next session."

Students in grades six through 12 participate in the page program on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays during the legislative session. Groups serve on Wednesdays.

The 2025 Senate Page program has now ended. Parents interested in signing up their child for the 2026 program should visit www.IndianaSenateRepublicans.com/Page-Program at the end of 2025 for more information.
