Graves sponsors Pioneer Middle School student as House page
Pioneer Middle School student Luke Rohrer recently traveled to Olympia to serve as a page in the state House of Representatives. He was sponsored by 5th District Rep. Paul Graves, R-Fall City.
Luke, who was an honorary page last year, loves to play football. He's also active in Young Life.
As part of his page duties, he learned to navigate the many buildings on the Capitol campus while delivering messages and documents to legislators and staff. He also attended page school every day to understand the inner workings of the Legislature.
“Luke's great kid, and I'm glad I had the opportunity to sponsor him as a House page,” said Graves. “Serving in the House Page Program is such a valuable experience for our young people, and I admire students like Luke who want to take part in it. I'm grateful for his service to the House, and wish him the best going forward.”
To become a page, applicants must have a legislative sponsor, be between the ages of 14 and 16, and obtain written permission from their parents and school. Pages earn $35 per day while serving in the program. For more information about the House Page Program, click here.
