Sen. Bailey welcomes Thornton Academy student to the Maine Senate
AUGUSTA — On Wednesday, Feb. 21, Sen. Donna Bailey, D-Saco, welcomed Thornton Academy student Mikayla Goulet of Saco to the Senate Chamber. Mikayla served as an Honorary Page.
“I was very happy to meet Mikayla today,” said Sen. Bailey. “Mikayla is an outstanding student, and she did a wonderful job as an Honorary Page in the Senate Chamber. I am very grateful for these students who travel to the State House and help my colleagues and me. Because of the pages, we can finish our work efficiently and quickly.”
On session days, the Senate Secretary’s Office manages the Honorary Page Program in the Maine State Senate. Open to students in third through twelfth grade, Honorary Pages perform various duties such as delivering messages; distributing documents within the Senate Chamber; interacting with State Senators; and – most importantly – taking part in a real world, legislative learning experience.
To sign up to serve as an Honorary Page, contact Alex Ferguson at (207) 287-1540 or Alex.Ferguson@legislature.maine.gov.
