Snape was already Headmaster in July.  When Snape gave LV the date for 
Harry's move, Charity Burbage, the ex-Muggle Studies teacher, was 
already hanging upside-down over the table in Malfoy Manor.  She never 
resigned; she was kidnapped when LV took over the school.

Term starts Sept. 1, and the students don't arrive until then, but 
Snape had been Headmaster, and had access to DD's portrait, for most or 
all of the summer.
