Every school handles hall passes in a different way. Some will go the standard route with a laminated card or a lanyard. Some schools mandate a teacher’s signature in an official school agenda book, while others make the student wear a neon orange or yellow vest with the room number. Some schools allow teachers to choose an object to give to students as a hall pass and some teachers take this opportunity to embarrass their students and have some fun.
Here is a list of real hall passes teachers have used:
An actual toilet seat (just in case you need an extra)
A mannequin leg
A rotting plantain
A giant cinderblock (though it was confiscated by admin. because it could be used as a weapon)
A sign on a lanyard that says, “I have explosive diarrhea.” (How badly do you have to go, kid?)
A rubber rat on a leash (because it’s a funny image to see a kid walking a rat on a leash through the hallways and teachers are desperate for laughs)
A sign that just says “poop” on it
A screwdriver (This seems like a bad idea to me. See the earlier note about the cinderblock being used as a weapon)
A toaster
An old bowling pin
A giant cardboard cutout of Burt Reynolds’ head, Britney Spears, a bear, Bob Ross, the teacher’s head
A globe
A pumpkin
A squash
An etch-a-sketch
A sandal
A giant biology skeleton
An upright bass
A life jacket
A giant bottle of hand sanitizer

A red cape the student must wear that says, “Pee, poop & away!”
A huge, old, heavy computer monitor
A baby car seat
A huge jar of dirt
A creepy old naked baby doll
A creepy old baby doll head
An oar
A life jacket
A surfboard
A baby stroller
An iron block
A huge bottle of hand sanitizer
A cactus
A bicycle wheel
A skeleton foot
A mop with the wheelie bucket of soap and everything
A 5-foot-long, 40-pound block of wood that he carved “Hall Pass”
A toilet plunger
A laminated poster of Cardi B, but it says, “Cardi Pee” on it
A large wooden crab that says, “I’ve got crabs”
A huge, old painting
