The PALS Operating Committee (O/C) exists to monitor and approve PALS activities and expenditures. This committee is composed of voting and non-voting members.

  • Voting Members: These are elected from the general membership of PALS, which includes all current parents at Franklin Academy at the time of the election. The voting membership includes PALS officers and 6-10 members-at-large, representing both Robin Hall and Markell Hall.
  • Non-Voting Members: These members are appointed to the Operating Committee by the Franklin Academy Administration.

The O/C meets quarterly, usually on a weekday evening, to review the budget and other agenda items, ensuring the efficient operation of PALS.

Minutes and financial reports are on file for viewing upon request in the PALS office at Robin Hall.
