Senator Johnson’s office is pleased to provide the following list of resources including educational opportunities for students of various ages and other information for students, parents, teachers and the broader community.

Opportunities for High School Students

U.S. Senate Page Program

Senator Johnson has the privilege of sponsoring qualified students from Wisconsin for the Senate Page Program — a highly competitive program available to juniors (or rising juniors/seniors) who are 16 or 17 years old. The Senate Page Program provides students the opportunity to get involved in government service and to experience the U.S. Senate legislative process firsthand.

There are only thirty page positions for each of the four sessions offered throughout the year and each page must be sponsored by a U.S. Senator. For more information about the program in general, see the U.S. Senate Page Program. To apply for the U.S. Senate Page program sponsored by Senator Johnson, click Senate Page Program.

Service Academy

American citizens at least 17 years old and not yet 23 years old on July 1 of the year you enter an academy (25 years old for United States Merchant Marine Academy) are eligible to be appointed to the U.S. Military Academy, U.S. Naval Academy, U.S. Air Force Academy, or U.S. Merchant Marine Academy. Click Academy Nominations to learn more about the Service Academy and the nomination process.

U.S. Senate Youth Program

The U.S. Senate Youth Program was established in 1962 and designed for high school students to increase young Americans’ understanding of the interrelationships of the three branches of government.

The program is an intensive week-long educational experience and scholarship sponsored by the United States Senate for outstanding high school juniors and seniors, who may qualify to apply through leadership positions they currently hold per the USSYP official criteria for the current academic year. All student leadership positions are subject to the judgement and verification of the state selection administrators. For more information, click on U.S. SenateYouth Program.
