How would she know about it? And how would it be explained to her parents? "Sir and Ma'am, we'd like to take your daughter away to a secret boarding school that you can't visit, and we can't tell you what happens there"?

any ideas?
You know, I'm rereading Chamber of Secrets, and when the kids all meet up in Diagon Alley, there's something about the Grainger parents looking a little nervous. Which I thought was strange- weren't they there the first year, too?
