We can just enumerate the students who can cast it, they were listed in the appropriate chapters. I don't know if any of them would have stayed at Hogwarts over the holidays.

I accept it's possible that these students have already learned how to send messages via Patronus, since Harry said he was going to teach his soldiers to do it.

Are you sure? We have account from what happened in the class for first year students and about the dementor. We don't have any accounts what happens in the classes of more advanced students. We don't have any accounts of their battles either.

You're right. I keep forgetting that students are still segregated by year.
