Did any slytherins fight against Voldemort?
They may not have been fighting by his side, but they were still fighting ON his side. So it would appear that each and every Slytherin student fought for Voldemort bar none, and the only Slytherins who fought against Voldemort were the teachers – Slughorn, openly, and Snape, covertly.
Did any slytherins stay to fight in the Battle of Hogwarts?

Were there any good Slytherins?
The only major Slytherin that was unquestionably good was Horace Slughorn. Just like everyone else, he wasn’t without faults: he was vain, cowardly, prefered purebloods, and only wanted to be associated with powerful overachievers in order to benefit from them, but he wasn’t bad.
Did Pansy fight in the Battle of Hogwarts?

Why are Slytherins sent home first in the Battle of Hogwarts?
None of the Slytherins stay to fight for Hogwarts in the scene where the houses are sent home table by table but that’s partly because they are the house nearest the door and so first out: as each of the other three houses leave more of their students stay, as each house gains confidence from the example of the one before it.
Who did Draco Malfoy fight for Voldemort?
According to the books, Draco, Crabbe, and Goyle fought for Voldemort (briefly). All the others fled the castle when given the opportunity, and the only other mention of them in the text is by Voldemort, claiming that they all joined his side.
Are Slytherins really that bad?
