  Hogwarts - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is a fictional school of magic that is the main setting of the Harry Potter series.
Hogwarts appears to be the only major school of magic in Britain, training people with magical abilities to become fully qualified witches and wizards.
Hogwarts' school year is structured in a similar way to other Muggle (non-magic) schools and colleges in the UK, with a three-term year punctuated by holidays at Christmas and Easter and bounded by the long summer vacation.

 Hogwarts houses - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The founder of the house is Godric Gryffindor.
As this is the house to which Harry Potter belongs, its private quarters are the only ones that have been described in any detail (though Slytherin's common room was described briefly in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets), and its members tend to get the most attention.
Ravenclaw house may also have an element of beauty within it, since Rowena Ravenclaw is described as being fair (pleasing to the eye), and that nearly all Ravenclaws are described as being handsome or beautiful and have had success in relationships.

 Hogwarts Houses. Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, Slytherin
When Hogwarts was founded, a disagreement arose between the four founders, Godric Gryffindor, Salazar Slytherin, Rowena Ravenclaw and Helga Hufflepuff as to which students the school would accept.
In order to resolve the dispute, the school was divided into four houses, one for each founder, and each house took those students the house's founder preferred to teach.
Each house took the name of its founder and ever since, the students of Hogwarts have been divided into Slytherins, Ravenclaws, Gryffindors and Hufflepuffs.

Indeed, much of the two houses seem externally to be in opposition: Gryffindor is for those who always do the right thing, even if it means not getting what they want; Slytherin is for those who will do absolutely anything to achieve their goals.
During their first four years at Hogwarts, Slytherin students spend most of their time being antagonistic to the other houses; House Points and Quidditch competitions seem to be exceedingly important, as their participation in the win (or loss) of these inter-house contests can strongly affect their standings in the later years.
The two founders for which the Houses were named spent a good deal of time arguing over which was more important in a school: the actual learning one does in a classroom, or the social learning one does within their House.

Hogwarts was founded over a thousand years ago (the precise date is uncertain) by the four greatest witches and wizards of the age.
They built Hogwarts together, far from prying Muggle eyes, for it was an age when magic was feared by common people, and witches and wizards suffered severe persecution.
For a few years, the founders worked in harmony together, seeking out the young who showed signs of magic and bringing them to the castle to be educated.

 Hogwarts Houses: Ravenclaw
In many ways, Ravenclaw is probably the most difficult house to get a firm grasp of understanding on; it is rarely mentioned in canon and we know very few members well, it is laden with commonly accepted stereotypes and its most defining characteristic, intelligence, is not unique to it.
Take Slytherin House for example; the broad terms used to define it usually are something along the lines of “sly,” “cunning,” and “ambitious.” The ambitious quality aside, the terms left belie a great deal of intelligence, with only one subtle difference: Its use.
I feel that such reasons are why Hermione Granger was placed into Gryffindor House; while it is true that she lives to soak up knowledge, she wants to use that knowledge to protect those around her by physical means, not by enlightenment.
