Pages cannot be associated with Categories and cannot be assigned Tags. The organizational structure for Pages comes only from their hierarchical interrelationships, and not from Tags or Categories.

Do you mean for posts? As, posts have these options.
I just got a response but it’s not showing up as a reply on here so I’ll just respond.

Ok maybe I didn’t explain right because i’ve done it plenty of times with older sites.
I have created various categories and I place specific posts in specific categories. My pages are each set as blogs and usually the Categories option shows up on my screen options so I that when a person goes to that page they only see those particular blog posts on that page. EXAMPLE: if I am writing about Comic-Con, the CC page shows only blog posts about ComicCon. The DragonCon page will show only posts about DC.
For some reason with this new 3.3.1 I am not given all my screen options like I usually have.
Thoughout my time on wordpress over the past few years, I’ve always done it hard coded, using theme templates.
