Greetings Everyone

Here’s a great opportunity for our TRiO students currently in high school.

I would like to remind you that Congressman Nunes spoke at our TRiO Day event and I would like to think that he would enjoy to see some of our students at least apply for this opportunity.  I’m not familiar with the program but if you visit his website, there should be more information.  Best of luck and let me know if I can be of any assistance.

Subject: Seeking Students for the House Page Program

Dear Friends,

I am pleased to now be accepting applications for the fall 2010 term of the U.S. House of Representatives Page Program.

The Page Program provides a unique and life-changing opportunity for young people interested in learning about the legislative process in our nation’s capital. House Pages are sponsored by Members of Congress but they are not employed in any particular Representative's office. Instead, they work as a team on the House floor assisting all Members of Congress.

The fall 2010 Page Program begins on Monday, September 6, and ends when Congress adjourns for the Christmas break. For the duration of the Page term, participating students are required to reside in the Page Hall under the supervision of proctors. Page Hall rooms are shared and include a study area, private bathroom, air conditioning and toll-controlled telephone. The Page Hall also includes several community areas including a living room with television, kitchen and pantry, laundry room, study room, computer room, and fitness room.

Prospective Pages for the fall program must be high school juniors, 16 years of age and no older than 17 years of age for the duration of the program.  A minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0 is also required. Full program details can be found here (download application). Pages will remain academically current through the House of Representatives Page School, with faculty support appropriate for eleventh grade coursework.

Pages are paid employees of the House of Representatives. They are an essential part of House operations and must be willing to place on hold all family activities, as well as school and community activities for the duration of the term.

Applications for the fall program are due to my office  July 19, 2010.

If you have questions about the program, please visit my website or call my office 559-733-3861.

Sincerely,

Devin Nunes

MEMBER OF CONGRESS
