Virginia page program gives teens up close look at politics

The House of Delegates and state Senate are taking applications for next year's page programs — where a number of 13 or 14-year-olds from around the state spend the legislative session assisting lawmakers with various tasks (like meal and paper deliveries) and observing committee and floor meetings. The program culminates with the pages conducting their own mock session.
