“I always enjoy meeting students from our district and introducing them to the Senate,” Miller said. “The page program is a hands-on approach to learning about state government, and I encourage other students to take part in this unique opportunity.”

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