Albus Dumbledor – Albus Dumbledor is the head master of Hogwarts. He is considered the greatest wizard of modern times. He is famous for the defeat of the dark wizard Grindelwald in 1945, the discovery of the 12 uses of blood and his work on alchemy. He enjoys chamber music and ten-pin bowling and he has a phoenix called Fawkes. He is the only one that Lord Voldemort is scared of and even the Dementors won't come into Hogwarts while he is there. Dumbledor was happy to help Fudge with running the Ministry until Fudge didn't believe that Voldemort had gained his old body back and power. Dumbledor has so many memories that he needs to use a Pensive to store them all!
Hagrid – Rebus Hagrid is the gamekeeper at Hogwarts. He also teaches Care of Magical Creatures. He was a pupil of Hogwarts until he was expelled in his third year. They all thought that he unleashed the horror of the Chamber of Secrets but it wasn't him. He has a soft spot for unusual creatures and once hatched an illegal dragon that he named Norbert and a 3 headed dog called Fluffy. He lives in a hut in the Hogwarts grounds and has a boarhound called Fang. We have recently discovered that Hagrid is half-giant!
Professor McGonagall – Professor McGonagall is the head of Gryffindor house and teaches Transfiguration. She is strict and has no favorite students; she treats them all equal. Sometimes though she can be nice such as when she lets Harry off for flying when he shouldn’t be and instead let him join the Quidditch team. She always her hair in a tight bun and is called Minerva!
Professor Snape – Serveus Snape went to school with James Potter, Harry's dad. He hates Harry just as he hated his dad because James saved his life. He is the head of Slytherin and teaches Potions. He keeps hoping to get the Defense Against the Dark Arts job but always misses out. Snape can be evil and was once a Death Eater but Dumbledor can vouch that he is now good. He will be playing an important role in the stopping of Voldemort.
Madam Pince - She's the Hogwarts librarian and strict about having a quiet library. Any who does make noise would be quite possibly kicked out. No one in allowed in her restricted area without a note and then she is adamant whether to let them in or not.
Professor Binns – Professor Binns is the only ghost teacher at Hogwarts. He teaches History of Magic and many find his lessons extremely dull and boring, with many students falling asleep!

Professor Flitwick – Professor Flitwick is a small man who teaches Charms. He can get over-excited like when he realized that he would be teaching Harry and when he taught the class, Cheering Charms!
Professor Trelawney – She teaches Divination in the highest tower at Hogwarts. She has made two predictions that have turned out correct at her time at Hogwarts. Most of her predictions though are rubbish and she favors those who she claims has the inward eye. She is very superstitious.
Madam Hooch – Madam Hooch is the Quidditch teacher and also teaches flying to the first years. She is very passionate about it but does not like people who break the rules or play unfairly.
Filch and Mrs. Norris – Filch is the caretaker for Hogwarts. He is a mean tempered old man who shouts at the students and gives them detentions. He's a squib. He has a cat called Mrs. Norris who's always on the lookout for students doing wrong.
