EVERETT — The first-ever Snohomish County Council Legislative Page Program is now accepting applications, a press release said.
The council will accept two students per district, ages 14-17, to learn about county government, meet people in various departments and elected offices, gain experience drafting ordinances and participate in mock hearings. Those selected by the council members will participate 8 a.m. to 3 p.m., April 27 to May 1, and receive a $65 per day stipend.
With the application, students must submit a teacher recommendation. Also, students must have parent or guardian permission, reside in Snohomish County, coordinate with school and teachers on absences and classwork, and provide a Social Security card to receive the stipend.
