Sen. Bailey welcomes Thornton Academy student to the Maine Senate
AUGUSTA — On Tuesday, March 5, Sen. Donna Bailey, D-Saco, welcomed Thornton Academy student Precieux Mbolea of Saco to the Senate Chamber. Precieux served as an Honorary Student Page.
“It was wonderful to meet Precieux and his parents at the State House,” said Sen. Bailey. “As the only page today, Precieux was busy. Being the oldest brother, he is setting an outstanding example for his younger siblings. I am very glad that students are taking advantage of this program. It is an excellent opportunity.”
On session days, the Senate Secretary’s Office manages the Honorary Student Page Program in the Maine State Senate. Open to students in third through twelfth grade, Honorary Student 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 Student Page, contact Alex Ferguson at (207) 287-1540 or Alex.Ferguson@legislature.maine.gov.
