If Toledo Private Schools Were Actually Hogwarts Houses

"Not Slytherin. Not Slytherin."

If Toledo Private Schools Were Actually Hogwarts Houses

"In Hufflepuff, loyal and just, you can always put your trust."

St. Ursula Academy: Founded in 1854 this all girl academy prides itself on being not only “equal opportunity but also every opportunity,” as they provide for their students every opportunity to learn and succeed. Just like the Hufflepuff house who accepts any student, they value loyalty and a strong work ethic.

The Ursula Arrows are deeply moved by their faith, which is integral to their values. They are committed to not only the enrichment of their own lives, but also the enrichment of others. Helga Hufflepuff would have been so proud of these spirited young ladies.

SUA Arrows should be proud of this house sorting; your loyalty and friendship are some of your best qualities. You’re in line with heartthrobs like Cedric Diggory, and you’ve also produced the least amount of dark wizards so hats off to you.

"Wit beyond measure is man's greatest treasure."

Notre Dame Academy: Founded over a hundred years ago, this all girls academy is involved in the empowerment of young women through education, leadership, and service. They are most known for their rigorous academics, largest area all-female fine arts program, and their competitive top athletics programs. These young women are well rounded and striving for the best in all categories of their lives.

Known for their wisdom, it's no doubt Rowena Ravenclaw would find these talented and academically motivated NDA students a perfect fit for her house. Also known for her beauty, she would most approve of NDA's iconic phrase "bold, brilliant, beautiful, and blessed." And with the house crest being an eagle, it wasn’t hard to figure out the NDA Eagles would be the perfect match.

NDA Eagles shouldn't be surprised by this house sorting. The Eagles are among some of the most spirited and loyal ladies out there. They find themselves in the company of the lovely Luna Lovegood and some of the most brilliant minds in the Wizarding world.

"Where dwell the brave at heart, and friends do never part."

St. Francis de Sales High School: Founded in 1955, this community supports the holistic spiritual, physical, and academic development of their all male student body. Holding 27 state championships in sports, these young men could definitely prove their worth on the Quidditch field. St. Francis has a saying, "Be who you are and be that well." This motto fits in perfectly with the house traits of friendship and bravery. Courage and chivalry are also important house traits that Godric Gryffindor himself would think fall in line perfectly with the SFS Knights in their transition through their education from "young men to Christian gentlemen."

However boys will be boys, and especially on the sports field these wild young men can relate to the negative criticism of Gryffindor students, which is their disregard for rules in their “pointless heroics.”

With its contribution of many members to Dumbledore’s Army and the Order of the Phoenix, this is definitely a house sorting for SFS students to be proud of. You’re in the company of many notable figures including Albus Dumbledore, the Weasleys, Sirius Black, Hermione Granger, and of course Harry Potter.

"Cunning and ambition above the rest is what Slytherin values best."

St. John's Jesuit High School: Founded in 1898, this all male college preparatory school holds its prestige close to heart. The Slytherin house is notorious for its acceptance of "pure blood" wizards and its students tend to be ambitious, achievement oriented, and strong leaders, just like those of the SJJ Titans.

The Titans value friendship and competition, and just like the Slytherin house, students are loyal to their friends. Salazar Slytherin would have found great honor in the hardworking ambition of the Titans on and off the sports field and in the classroom.

While most people give Slytherin a bad rap, SJJ Titans should be proud of this house sorting. Their qualities of resourcefulness, cleverness, and determination will make them some of the most powerful leaders in the country. Also congrats on being the house Harry Potter was almost sorted into.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
