Hello Wes,

the current school year is 2017-2018! In that sense, in the next September students will start the school year 2018-2019 

I hope this answer your question! 

What do I do if I want to become a writer? And how many writers can there be? And what would I do as a writer?

Hey Verla! The Writer position is for those who are on their house's newspaper. In order to become one, you would need to find out more about the Hufflepost. The number of writers depends on what the Editor-in-Chief thinks. As a writer, you would write a column for the monthly Hufflepost!

This is just my idea, but I'm not in Hufflepuff. If any Huffles would like to clarify a bit further, go ahead!

Okay, that sounds about right, so does one writer do it on a specific month or every month?

They contribute an article to the post every month. I'd Owl Serena with other questions. I think she's Editor-in-Chief?

Thank you, Professor Blackburn! I think I’ll come to you with all of my Questions so they don’t get lost with the flow of things!

Do you have to finish all of the lectures/homework in order to move on to the second year?

If you're registered by September of this year, you move onto Year 2, roleplay wise and are considered as such. If you want that 'First year' title to change under your photo, you'll have to finish the homework. Not all of the homework is out yet, but I think you can work on it while it's still being released and be considered.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if each year has five lessons, and we'd need to complete all 40 lessons for the first year for the title to change, but we don't finish it in time, we could, in theory, be a second year but titled as a first year? How would that work?

This is kind of a weird question but how do you earn money? I know you get a scholarship every day, but some people have loads of money and I'm confused as to how they acquired it.
