Malfoy Academy of Wizarding Excellence? No, cannot associate this project directly with myself or anyone else suspected by the public of being attached to the Cause. Not suitable names for Houses either. Benefactors can be honoured by having parts of the school named after them? Malfoy ward, Yaxley library, etc.
Caledonia = old name for Scotland, school is on a Scottish island. Caledonian Academy of Wizarding Excellence? Tarasaighan Academy of Wizarding Excellence, after the island specifically?
How many Houses? Four? Seven? No founders to name after. Stick with Celtic/Gaelic theme? Seasons, virtues, mascots?
Headmaster? Someone from Hogwarts, to reassure parents? Horace Slughorn springs immediately to mind. I wonder if he would correspond with me. Alternatively, a member of the Inner Circle who is not suspected of Death Eater activity? Faustus, Charlus, Ignatius, Algernon?

Ms Meliflua, I believe you may be able to help me out. I know your expertise lies within politics and the law system, and I find myself with a proposition. First, let me provide some background information. Mrs Greengrass and myself have been talking about the Statute of Secrecy, and how Muggleborn children who do not yet know their power are the biggest threat to it. I am planning on opening a facility to educate Muggleborns (as I believe we already discussed on a post of mine back in May), and it seems logical to start the education of Muggleborns before they reach the age of eleven.
With the imminent opening of the Orphanage, Lucinda agrees with me that the removal of children from their families as soon as their powers are detected would be advantageous. There would, of course, be adequate facilities to house them at a separate branch of the Orphanage.
However, this presents a problem, specifically a problem of laws, and this is where I hope you can help me. This would need higher authority than I can give, but I am no expert on the legal system and I am unsure whether this needs to travel through the Wizengamot in the form of a bill, or can be taken straight to the Minister. If a bill does need to be written, I was hoping this would be another area you could help. With your expertise and various methods I have at my disposal, I am sure that together we could make this work.
Naturally, this matter is out of worry for the Statute of Secrecy, and to prevent a new generation of terrorists. But I am sure that the Wizengamot would understand this.
