Hey everybody! Sorry you haven't heard from us lately. We are really enjoying a much needed break! But since we are getting closer to our next start date, I wanted to take care of a few housekeeping items.

We will be reorganizing our forums a bit in the next couple of days. Since we now have the ability to rename our forums, accompanied with us being able to make full use of the House specific ping groups, we will be disbanding the roleplay ping group and be moving the roleplay threads to what is currently The Common Rooms. Common Room RP threads and bullentin boards will be moving to the House ping groups. The Club threads will be staying in the forum with the roleplay threads, as most of them are roleplay based as well.

Club captain tryouts will be going up either today or tomorrow. I apologize that this didn't go up sooner. Quite honestly, I forgot that I had set a date for them to go up! So if you're interested in running a club next term, keep an eye out for the tryouts.

Just a reminder, if you would like to change houses before the upcoming term, you need to submit an sMail to me before July 30th! Please let me know your reason for moving. Most reasons will be approved; however if it seems many people are moving to one house in order to better their chances at winning, the requests to move may be denied.

Last, but not least, I am hoping to be able to devote a little more time to developing our Quidditch system in the near future. With that said, I am going to need some volunteers to help with a test match. If you'd be interested in playing, no matter what House you are in, please sMail me with what position you'd like to play. I am unsure when this test game will take place, but I will give more details when we get to that point.

If anyone has any questions or concerns for the upcoming term, please let me know!

HI all! I just wanted to remind everyone that club captain applications are due on Wednesday. I've only received one so far. Even if you've been a club captain previously, if you'd like to captain again, feel free to apply. If no one else applies for your club, you're guaranteed another term.

Also all house changes must be in before term starts on Saturday!

Hello all! The start of the Fourth Term is FINALLY HERE!!

Throughout the weekend, we'll be posting activities and classes for you to participate! We're really hoping you all put your best foot forward and make this the best term yet.

As you all saw yesterday, we've brought on Gaia as a new Head Girl. Since that's the case, we've had a bit of a house shift amongst the admins. Gaia will continue to earn points for Ravenclaw, while Italia has moved to Slytherin for this term.

Unfortunately, we did not have a very big turn out for Club Captain positions this term. However, I am very pleased to announce those that have been selected for clubs this term!

- The Defense Club Captain - Herbology Club Captain - Charms Club Captain - Book Club Captain

Captains, you may now make your club threads at any time. :) Please remember to label whether your club is a roleplay or a discussion.

As you can see, I'll personally be heading up the Book Club this time around. Since Harry Potter and the Cursed Child comes out tomorrow and I'm sure most of you will be reading it anyway, we will be covering that book this time around! I will have a spoilers label on the topic just in case for those who are not looking to be spoiled!

If you're still interested in applying for a club not listed here and decide later that you would like to, please feel free to sMail me.

Just a reminder, since the new term has started, we are no longer accepting requests for change of house until the Fourth Term is over. At that time, you'll be able to submit an sMail with the house you'd like to change to and your reason for changing.

Prefects will be announced later this week.

If you have any questions/concerns or think I missed anything, let me know!

I may wait a week or at least a few days to start the discussion anyway to give people a chance to read some

I'm getting my copy tonight. Taking my daughter to the midnight release party at Books-A-Million :)

SILLY ME YOU GUYS.

I forgot to mention... Term ends November 5th!
