Covalt pages for Jech at state Capitol
Kingfisher High School student Cade Covalt completed a week of service as a page for Sen. Darcy Jech, R-Kingfisher.
Covalt served at the Capitol during the 15th week of session from May 15-19.
Paging gives high school students a behindthe- scenes look at the legislative process.
They provide important services during the busy legislative session, including assisting in Senate committee meetings and daily sessions of the full Senate.
The group met with Gov. Kevin Stitt and took a commemorative photo. They also met with Senate President Pro Tempore Greg Treat and Tulsa Sen. Dave Rader.
The pages participated in a mock legislative committee meeting, along with a floor session, called Pageville, where they presented and debated bills from the 2023 legislative session.
Finally, they toured the Oklahoma History Center and the newly renovated Capitol.
Covalt participates in sports and plans on attending an electrical trade program after high school.
He is the son of Kingfi sher residents Geoff and Shana Covalt.
