Momy424 here:

Just my opinion, but I really cannot see this happening, based on a 
few things.  If DD has just been killed at the school where he has 
put such terrific charms and protections and he was regarded as one 
of the most powerful wizards in the world, yet the DE got in and 
killed him, why would parents feel any safer if HP is at the school 
teaching their children, knowing he is like #1 on Voldy's list to 
kill?  I mean as a parent, would you send your kid to a school no 
longer safe, where the principal was murdered by a teacher after a 
student let the bad guys in and the most wanted person was now your 
kids new teacher?  I think not.

Also, Harry would never be lured back to take a cursed position (he 
knows of the curse on it from DD) and one that would interfere with 
him "fulfilling is destiny" as he knows he must do

Finally, I can't imagine him wanting to bring others into danger as I 
am sure he would feel he would do if he were to take such a position 
before Voldemort is destroyed.

I think he will return to Hogwarts, but probably not as a full time 
student, but I can't imagine the school not playing some part in book 
7 (which based on how many questions I have after reading will have 
to be like 1,000 pages to satisfy me!!)

Also, I am pretty sure it has been revealed that Dumbledore taught 
Divinations when he was a professor and not DADA.
