alt_percyThe Prefects held their usual Wednesday night meeting tonight, and a concern was raised that the Prefects feel must be brought to the attention of the school at large.
Specifically, a significant number of students have been suffering from repeated hexes from unknown assailants in the last week and a half. Most have been first years, primarily half bloods, although there have been one or two purebloods. Students in all four Houses have been affected.
Yes, we understand that Things Will Happen. Yes, we understand that sometimes students are practising their spells, and that sometimes tempers will flare. This situation, however appears different: those who are doing the hexing are acting in a completely underhanded way, apparently too cowardly to face the consequences of their own actions.
This behaviour must stop. Several students have suffered setbacks in their studies, because they have missed quizzes or exams necessary for their school credit, due to impairment from hexes. All the Houses are seeing resultant losses to their House point totals.
All students must follow the Hogwarts Code of Conduct. This includes refraining from spell-casting in the halls, and certainly from vindictive hexing.
If any student has any information concerning these issues, please speak to one of your House Prefects. The identity of any students who come forward to make such reports will be kept confidential.
