Paige 'Husk' Guthrie and Alex 'Havok' Summers both arrived at the school - Paige being Cannonball's younger sister and Alex being Scott's younger brother. Paige proved very popular, forming several close friendships (Alison, Scott, her roommate Sarah, Piotr and Warren) as well as being drawn to the loner Jono. Several couples got together: Scott and Betsy acted on their attraction with mixed results and Sam and Alison eventually got together after weeks of cluelessness and misunderstandings, including an incident whilst Alison was loopy on painkillers after a horse riding accident. Lorna also developed a crush on Alex, despite trying to talk herself into a 'sensible' course of action. She wrote a letter to herself, outlining the reasons why a relationship wouldn't work and unfortunately that letter was found and read by Alex, causing much angst.
There were several outings for the staff and students to unwind, including trips to an amusement park and New York and Emma Frost took several students (Alex, Sarah and Jono) to a solstice revel. Selene, Black Queen of the Hellfire Club also attended. The release of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix caused the school to effectively shut down for a day or two.
Various staff and students were in contact with Pyro via the journals and through the mail and Emma met him in New Haven in order to give him back various possessions he left behind at the school. Pete Wisdom uncovered an illegal mutant organ smuggling ring in Luthiania and closed it down and then discovered there were links to Hong Kong and other countries. He also Happened to someone in the Arctic.
Powers-wise, Kitty gained control of her phasing (and began private study with Dr Essex on various projects), Everett had a power overload that Scott talked him down from and Jono blew up several trees after a bad reaction with Betsy's powers and received a series of containment shirts and jaw prosthestics from Emma Frost. Betsy also approached Essex in relation to curing her blindness and he began his researches into regenerating her eyes.
