Voldemort's 'connection' with it means that I think it would be a cool place for a final showdown...
I think that Harry will return to the school - although I can't imagine him going as a student, or if he does, then any of the teachers even mildly reprimanding him. But, he will continue to learn, all based toward a final showdown with Voldemort (obviously) and I think Hogwarts may become an unofficial second base for the Order, just as Harry will become unofficial leader of the Order.
Any disagreements? With reasons, I hope.

... many characters tied to Hogwart's who have become extremely important in the last five books, and this, in theory, should be enough to ensure the re-opening of Hogwart's.... If they were going to close the school indefinitely for deaths on the premises, surely it would have been closed after Myrtle's death at least?
I also think Harry will return to Hogwart's because, as Phoe said, it's his anchor, the only true anchor to the wizarding world...
Plus, the books just wouldn't be the same for me without Hogwart's School of Witchcraft and Wizardry 😂
Couldn't agree with you more. Plus I refuse to believe that Dumbledore could have died liked that, without explaining why he trusted Snape so much. That part of the storys gotta at least come out. The last few books have raised all too many questions. I'm afraid there are gaps already for me, the last book I hope will come out soon before I completely forget all the others! haha! 😄
I think it will re-open.
There's really no reason for it not to re-open. Students still need to learn and Hogwarts is still safer than most people's homes. I believe it will close down in the middle of the book however, because Voldemort will attack it. A few Order members are there plus Voldemort will want to do something he wasn't able to do last time. After the attack, in which many people will die, nearly all the students will be pulled from Hogwarts from their parents. To few students will be left at Hogwarts for it to saty opened.

Just with that last part... The unofficial leader... I'm gonna lean towards no on that one... Though he is the "chosen one" There are much older and stronger wizards in the order... Oh... And I dunno bout Hogwarts becoming a base... Hm... I mean c'mon...
Fair enough, I just tossed that in there as a last thought. THe base, though - I think either Harry will be staying there, or there will be no need for the school to be open. If Harry's not there, Hogwarts wouldn't feature nearly so much - and it wouldn't be his seventh year of school!
Wasn't there something Nearly Headless Nick said about ghosts choosing to come back because of unfinished business? I always wondered why Sirius didn't return, obviously given the choice there was no way he would have opted to cross over, so I still think Sirius is alive (but that's a different discussion), so in this case perhaps DD will return as a ghost. If he is indeed dead which I sincerely do not believe 🙄
