Windham High School student Kennedy Sawyer served as an
Honorary Page in the Maine Senate on March 15, as the guest of Senator Bill
Diamond, D-Windham. Kennedy and Senator Diamond had their picture taken during
a break in the Senate Session. Senator Diamond extends invitations to
Honor Roll students from the area’s middle and high schools as a way to
recognize their strong academic performance and foster an interest in civics.
The Honorary Page Program gives students an
opportunity to participate in the Senate and interact with legislators.
Honorary Pages see what it is like to work on the floor of the Senate and be
part of a legislative session. Pages perform such duties as delivering messages
to senators and distributing amendments and supplements in the chamber.
Students from third grade through high school are invited to serve in the
Senate Chamber as Honorary Pages when the Senate is in session. For more
information or to schedule a visit, call Sen. Diamond at (207) 287-1515.
