NAME:  Karen Schmidt<br/>ROLE IN SCHOOL:  English Teacher<br/>TIME OF DAY:  Morning<br/>LOCATION:  Outside of Sam's Classroom<br/>TAGGING:  Jake Crow, Samuel Ervin<br/><br/>Karen watched Samuel as he spoke.  She tilted her head and frowned in concern.  He seemed to be listening to something.  She reached out and put her hands on his shoulders, trying to ground him.  "Samuel.  Focus, alright?  Listen to my voice and focus on me.  What's going on?  What are you hearing?" she asked, concerned he may be hallucinating.  In any case, the teen was clearly having a problem focusing.  Karen was concerned that perhaps his position as a teacher was overwhelming him; that it was too much to handle and was causing mental problems from him.  Handling so many students was a lot to ask of someone his age; hell, she had a problem with it herself, and she at least had some experience.  She watched him worriedly as she waited to see if he could respond to her, or if she needed to find someone else to help.
