If we buy the theory that Chamber of Secrets was all about foreshadowing and so forth, might it not be possible that Dumbledore's revelation about Voldemort got him suspended or actually sacked? That would leave, I presume, either Snape or McGonagall as Headmaster/Headmistress or conceivably someone from the outside. Depending on how far Voldemort has infiltrated his little weasels into the Ministry, could he not have some influence on the selection? If we assume for the moment that Fudge isn't just a dope, but actually agressively evil, might he not arrange to have a Voldemort friendly headmaster? Someone like a former school governor who has been outspoken about the way Dumbledore ran the school? Someone like Lucius Malfoy?
And if that happens, what do the Dumble-o-philes like the Weasleys do? Will they continue to send their children to Hogwarts? Will they be allowed to? I presume the muggle borns wouldn't. Would Dumbledore set up a Hogwarts in exile?

Being that it is year 5, prefects are chosen and I will be expecting
for Hermione to send Harry an owl in which she states that she is a
Gryffindor Prefect. Plus, I'd like to even see Draco as a Slytherin
Prefect. I wouldn't be surprised at all because we haven't hear
anything about his being stupid like Goyle or Crabbe, whoever had the
lowest grades in SS/PS.
Now, I want to know if the Death Eaters (Crabbe, Goyle, Nott, Malfoy,
etc.) are going to let their children attend Hogwarts this year being
that Voldemort is back. I know Dumbledore isn't going to have a
problem because he is, after all, open-minded. Could the DE's have
their own children be spies? Uh....that'll be so interesting. Not
only an epic war in the WW, but a war in Hogwarts itself!
How are HRH going to interact with MCG knowing what they know about
them? Will HRH start their own "crowd"? How about recruiting
Neville, Susan Bones and Fawcett?
I would like to see some more Defense Classes besides Defense Against
the Arts. I must admit, I have been influenced by the FF Draco
Sinister. I'd like for Harry, Ron and Hermione (and the rest of
them) to learn how to fence and duel. Obviously, Voldemort expected
Harry to know how to duel in GoF, so why not have Flitwick teach an
extra class. Maybe they could even learn how to use bows and arrows
a al Legolas (look below)! My whole point is: They need to learn how
to defend themselves! Voldemort HAS returned! Not everyone can be
like HRH. ;)
>>side note: It seems that wizards have cross-bred. Why haven't I
heard any mentions of cross-breeding with Elves, not house-elves,
actual elves. Maybe JK is leaving that for later?<<
Now back to a question I had that I'd like to bring up, again. Will
parents let their children go back to Hogwarts after learning that
Dumbledore told them that Voldemort is back? There are parents who
value Dumbledore and his opinions like Mrs. Weasley, but what of
parents who are in denial like Fudge (although I think he's a
traitor)? What about the Muggle parents who don't understand what is
going on, like Hermione's and Dean's? What will Hermione and Dean
tell them when they recieve an owl from Hogwarts about an evil wizard
that's come back to try to take over the WW? I hope JK answers some
of these questions.
I have a feeling Hogwarts may have a smaller amount of students this
year than last year, making the castle solitary, which I don't think
is a good idea because there is safty in numbers.
Greicy, who is thinking V will make his own school for DE's children
or will have the DE children try to take over Hogwarts themselves
