In re-reading the CoS today I came up with a question. Just how did
they know it was Ginny who was taken into the chamber.

If there really ARE 1,000 students at Hogwarts it would certainly
take time to find out which one it was. Also it seems that most
students didn't event know what was going on.

So how did they know?

Magic Scott....Magic.  Actually, I am sure it would be pretty simple.  We 
don't know exactly how long before Ron and Harry found out that the teachers 
knew, and it could easily be said that they did a "house roll-call".  Who 
knows, I have always wondered if Hogwarts has a clock such as at the 
Weasley's that Dumbledore holds on to.  Except this may say "hookie, ill, 
mortal peril, detention, quidditch, class, etc."  But anyways, to your 
question, just because students dont know whats going on does not mean 
teachers don't.  I am sure they had lots of great contingency plans all 
ready and one of those was how to discern if something happens to students.
