I'm pretty sure what the trailer showed IS their warning; they're not just gonna drop everything on Twilight and leave. As for the second and third dilemmas, the easy answer would be-in my opinion-to have other ponies and/or creatures take over the running of the school. Twilight could potentially still be headmare-Celestia ran a school while she ruled, after all-but Starlight could step up and handle things whenever Twilight is busy. They've had to get substitute teachers for the school before; it would just be a matter of finding permanent replacements.

It will be interesting to see what happens to Spike in the midst of all this; might be an interesting opportunity to examine his role. I mean, I'm sure that Celestia and Luna have a whole staff to handle the administrative stuff he's used to doing for Twilight. Perhaps an episode will focus on him dealing with not being needed in that capacity anymore, and struggling to find out what his new role should be?
