New term, that sort of thing by Sadi Powell
Hello, everyone! New term is now officially underway. Still waiting on three first years to post, but they are all from known authors so I'm assuming they will post some time soon. Which means zero no-shows! Well done on the advertising front. Only half of our goal of 40 students, but nevermind - applications will remain open for one more week.As far as the schedule goes, I've done written one up which I'll post as a reply to this entitled 'schedule' so you can just click on that in furture without having to sift through all this
Staff meeting! Most of the plot will be shoved into the second half of term, so there's no urgency to discuss it with you, but we haven't had a staff meeting in a good long while. Again, for those who are new or need reminding, a staff meeting means we all get together at the same time and place (the staff Chatzy) and discuss things in real time. This can include plots, prefects, that sort of thing.
So, based on what I already know from some of you about available hours and such, how many people would be able to attend a meeting on Sunday 11th April at 8pm GMT (that's 4pm EST, or 9pm BST - if anyone needs other timezones do let me know)? If you can't make that time but would like to suggest an alternative, please go on ahead.
As usual, any thoughts, comments, questions, etc, you know where to send them.

Schedule by Sadi Powell
Pre-midterm schedule. Check you have the right number of classes: Beginners = years 1&2, Intermediate = years 3&4, Advanced = years 6&7. Remember we have no fifth year. Divinations will be available as an elective to third years and above only.Heads of Houses, please make sure your speeches go up by the end of the weekend.
Amelia, as soon as all the HoH speeches are up, please post flying lessons ASAP so first years can then attend Quidditch try-outs. I've tried to squeeze two into the start of this year to allow for possible plots after midterm. You also need to make sure all the Quidditch Captains are meeting their deadlines (by OOC messages or however else you see fit).
2nd April – New year starts
9th April – Quidditch sign-up sheets
(11th April HoH speeches)
16th April – First year’s flying lesson, Beginner Transfiguration, Intermediate Divinations, Advanced Potions, Quidditch try-outs
23rd Aril –Beginner CoMC, Intermediate DADA, Advanced Charms
30th April – Quidditch Game One begins, Beginner Potions, Intermediate Transfiguration, Advanced Divination
7th May – Beginner DADA, Intermediate Charms, Advanced CoMC
14th May – Quidditch Game One ends, Quidditch Game Two
begins, Beginner Charms, Intermediate Potions, Advanced Transfiguration
21st May –Intermediate CoMC, Advanced DADA
28th May – Quidditch game Two ends; Midterm begins
4th June –Points in
11th June - Midterm ends; Term resumes
Remember all these dates are Dealines - they are a Friday, which gives authors a good posting opportunity over the weekend. If you have to make it Saturday morning instead that's fine, but if you're unable to make the date I've set please let me know ASAP so I can work something out. I don't want anyone to feel stressed by this schedule. Any questions, please e-mail me.

Re: Staff meeting by Amelia
I think I can make the meeting at 4pm (EST) on Sunday. I may be a little bit late, but I should be able to be there.

I may be a bit late, but nothing more than a few minutes at most. Thanks for the details and making me that much less confused!

I'll be out of town this weekend, returning on Sunday. I don't know what time I'll be back, so it's iffy whether or not I'll make the staff meeting.

I'm not entirely sure if I'll be able to make it or not, because I don't know if I have anything planned for the day. I'll try my best, but I can't make any promises. I
