Student proctors, selected by residential faculty each spring from the junior class to serve during their senior year, are important campus leaders. They help set the tone for how the Hebron Academy community lives. They lead by example among their peers.

Proctors live on campus and have specific duties. Each morning, they are responsible for taking attendance at Morning Meeting. In the evening, they perform a preliminary check in and help fellow students get prepared for study hall, and then help maintain order during study hall. On chore night, proctors ensure that the work is done to keep the dorms in order. Proctors also monitor activity in the student union (on a rotating schedule).

In general, proctors are expected to adhere closely to Hebron's expectations for conduct, to help maintain order, to encourage others to take care of their surroundings, to get involved in activities in the dorms, and to treat their fellow students with respect. They look out for students who might need a shoulder to lean on or some extra help. They work collaboratively with residence hall faculty and the Community Life Team to ensure that the school year is both enjoyable and productive.
