The House Page Board is a group of elected officials who oversee the United States House of Representatives Page Program. The board was created in 1983 to protect the pages who come from all over the country to serve Congress. Traditionally, the board has consisted of two majority party Members, a minority party Member, and involved officers of the House. Currently, the Sergent at Arms and Clerk serve on the board. Additionally, Donn Anderson, Member Emeritus, serves the board.

In reaction to the Foley Scandal, the composition of the board changed. It will now consist of two majority party Members, two minority party Members, the Sergent at Arms, the Clerk of the House, the parent of a former page and a former page.
