Good question. Dumbledore says at the feast that everyone present in 
the Great Hall will always be welcome at Hogwarts...MCG were present 
too, so this includes them. Therefore, I doubt Dumbledore will expell 
them or even discourage them from attending Hogwarts.

I have a feeling the MCG will be attending Hogwarts in Book 5. Why? I 
have had the impression that Lucius Malfoy used Draco as his informant 
during CoS since I read the book. Strategically, MCG are well-placed 
to be conduits of information to the Dark Side about the goings-on in 
Hogwarts.
