Stanwood teen serves as legislative page
Cassandra "Cassie" Walsh,
15, of Stanwood, served this week as a page in the Washington House of
Representatives. She was sponsored by
Rep.
Barbara Bailey, R-Oak
Harbor.
Paging presents students
with a unique educational opportunity to participate in the legislative
process. Their duties vary from ceremonial tasks, such as presenting the
flags, to operational chores like distributing amendments during
legislative sessions. Pages spend a week in Olympia and often stay with
host families.
A 10th-grade student,
Cassie is home-schooled. She enjoys both arts and science.
Cassie is the daughter of
Keith and Lisa Walsh, Stanwood.
