In case you did not see the comments left elsewhere: Albus has said he has a form of experimental magic that may assist those fighting at the camp. He has pressed me into covering his classes, under his likeness; he refused to provide me with any further information.
When he left here, he intended to rendezvous with Frank; I believe it was his intention to have Frank be the one to cast whatever spell he has come up with.
Having been stuck here to tend to the children, I do not, unfortunately, have further information. Hogwarts is quiet; Poppy is keeping an eye on the juniors, and preparing for an evacuation should it become necessary.
Your children, meanwhile, spent the night in my office (as did I); upon their arrival last night, Evelyn informed me that she, quoting to the best of my memory, "couldn't stand both not knowing and being in the common room with people who didn't even know there was something they didn't know".
We spent much of the evening in quiet contemplation and study, but there was an emotional undercurrent I did not much like. Poppy and I agree that the children are likely steps away from volunteering themselves to join you; she is watching them closely, and I am likewise prepared to keep them free of the fray. If we are unable to keep them from making a break for it, I will do whatever I can to ensure that they are, at least, not alone.
(I will resist the urge to do so in Albus's skin. I am exceptionally irate with him this morning.)
From what Sirius has reported, there appears to be a modified form of a Fidelius at the camp.
We have yet to hear from our people who would've been at the site when the Fidelius would've been activated, if that is indeed what it is.
This appears to be a situation where there are a great deal of unknowns. At this point, I think it prudent to wait for Sirius to report, or for our people to make contact with him.

Re: Private message to Alice
I will try my best to convince them it's not needed.
