STATEHOUSE (Feb. 4, 2013) – State Sen. Luke Kenley (R-Noblesville) welcomed the following local students to the Statehouse as Senate pages in January:

• Garrett Wiles, from Noblesville, attends Noblesville East Middle School
• Ava Peterson, from Noblesville, attends Noblesville East Middle School
• Emily Peterson, from Noblesville, attends Noblesville High School
• Connor Osswald, from Carmel, attends Westfield Middle School
• Aaron Bennett, from Carmel, attends Westfield Middle School
• Payton Stanley, from Westfield, attends Saint Maria Goretti School
• Trevor Crupi, from Westfield, attends Westfield Middle School
• Kevin Hitch, from Westfield, attends Westfield Middle School

Pages spend a day at the Statehouse touring the historic building, observing debates from the chamber floor and interacting with their state senators. 

“It is encouraging to see young people involved in the legislative process at the Statehouse,” Kenley said. “This program allows students to gain a better understanding of how Hoosiers are represented in Indianapolis.”

Students in grades six through 12 can participate in the page program on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays through April 4.
