Student pages join State Rep. Stephen Bartels at the Statehouse

 STATEHOUSE (May 20, 2019) – State Rep. Stephen Bartels (R-Eckerty) recently welcomed local student pages to the Statehouse.

As House pages, these students toured the governor’s office, the House and Senate chambers, and the Indiana Supreme Court. They also helped staff with their daily tasks and met with Bartels to learn more about the legislative process:

• Philip McClure, from Leavenworth, attends the Insight School of Indiana;
• Rodney McClure, from Leavenworth, attends the Insight School of Indiana;

• Dominick Montgomery, from Taswell, attends the Insight School of Indiana;
• Morgan Ryan, from Dale, attends Heritage Hills High School; and

“The page program is a great opportunity for students to gain experience and a better understanding of their state government,” Bartels said. “I encourage other students to participate in this program and visit the Statehouse.”
