HOL

Dear Hogwarts Online Community,

As I write this message, my heart is filled with a range of emotions. Today, I announce my decision to step down from my role as Deputy Headmaster and member of the Head Office. This decision has not been an easy one, but it is necessary due to personal commitments that require more of my attention.

Reflecting on my journey, I am overwhelmed with gratitude. Hogwarts Online has been more than just a virtual platform; it has been a family, a sanctuary and a fountain of unforgettable memories. Each one of you - students and faculty alike - has enriched this experience in ways words can barely encapsulate. The friendships I've forged here are nothing short of magical. Many of you have transitioned from being friends behind screens to becoming an important part of my real-life adventures.

While I am stepping away from the Head Office, I will continue to serve as the Groundskeeper. I will be roaming through the shadows of the Forbidden Forest, ensuring that our digital experience at Hogwarts Online can continue to run smoothly and is protected by all necessary enchantments.

Thank you for the privilege of serving this community.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Prof. Dario Brighton
Keeper of Grounds

Oh, my word! Thank you so much for your contributions, Prof. Dario. We definitely appreciate what you’ve done to keep the HOL spirit alive and well! All the best!

It was an honor to have you around and still is, irrespective of your role, Professor Brighton.

Thank you for serving in such a difficult position! Also, thank you for staying on as Groundskeeper and keeping HOL safe and running! All the best to you.

Thank you for your contributions to HOL. I am a first year, yes, but I can see your contributions to HOL everyday. So thank you for everything and it is great to still have you around as the Groundskeeper.
