In some schools, a hall monitor is a student volunteer who is charged with the task of maintaining general order and good conduct within the halls and corridors. Hall monitors tend to be active in junior and middle schools within the United States and some other countries.

While specific duties vary between establishments, hall monitors typically check students have hall passes, maintain overall good conduct, and ensure students are punctual in attending classes. The exact privileges and authority granted to a hall monitor also vary between schools. Generally, students chosen for the position are responsible and accountable.
