English term or phrase: House leader
No estoy segura a qué se refiere con "house leader"

Telephone Use
If a student needs to contact a family member in an urgent situation, they must get the approval of their house leader to call from the office. The house leader will determine if an urgent situation exists. Calls will be limited to outside of instructional time to the extent possible.

If a student has a medical condition which requires frequent bathroom use, please bring this to the attention of the child’s house leader immediately with supporting documentation from a doctor.


For this reason, parents are invited to come in and sit in on their students’ class at any time. We only ask that you see the house leader on the floor so you can be escorted to the class. You are welcome to stay as long as you like.

Ejemplo de ficción: Griffyndor, en Harry Potter. Si no es un colegio de pupilos, con residencia, sería probablemente lo que dice Tadio.

house leader
prefecto/tutor


Explanation:
Prefecto que no perfecto. Prefecto se utiliza normalmente para posiciones gubernamentales o para un cargo importante en las fuerzas de seguridad.
La verdad es que cuando vi esta pregunta, pensé inmediatamente en Harry Potter y en que cada una de las casas del internado tiene un prefecto: un alumno de los cursos superiores que sirve de enlace entre los alumnos y los profesores. También llama al orden.
Si se trata de una persona adulta (un profesor o un asistente) se podría considerar tutor. En un colegio privado que estuve teníamos tutores (no eran profesores) con los que hablabamos cada dos semanas o así en privado. Los tutores eran diferentes según el curso pero había tutores que tenían dos o incluso tres cursos.
