Debate 5: Will Hogwarts reopen next year?

Well, the books are seven, and so are the years in Hogwarts. Coincidence? I dont think so! So i bet the school will reopen and that Harry is going to be there as a "regular" student, but with more "freedom of movement"

About the portrait idea i think is just lame, and thats for a simple reason: As DD say, every death director has the possibility to walk from one of their portraits to another to help the new director, even if they dont like it. And there is a reason than DD is going to be the most informed character in the last book: The chocolate toads!! and thats why he was always so concerned about him being pulling out of em.

So Harry wont have to go to the portrait in the Directors office, just look at his card and talk to it (but he is very slow so i bet he wont notice that until the chapter 20 or something...)

No, they didn't. A photograph can't talk, but a portrait can.

But i believe DD say remove my portrair from the Chocolate toads, but i can be wrong for one reason, Ive read it in spanish. And in spanish he said portrait, sure about that

yep ... but i think the choclate tode thing has somthin to do with DD

I thought the bit about DD not wanting to be removed from the Chocolate Frog cards was a joke. You know how crazy Dumbledore is.

IT will open because The books are about harry's 7 years at hogworts thats what jkr said when she started the books.

well, it might, b/c some parents will believe that their home is just as dangerous as hogwarts, so they will let their kids go to hogwarts. others may just want to stay with their families for as long as possible, so they won't let their kids return. it is probably going to shut down, but after voldemort dies, it will reopen. and we know that voldemort will die, because if he doesn't, the world dies. and no author would let that happen. expecially if alot of kids are going to read it.
