SOMETHING ALARIC WAS HELLBENT ON WAS MAKING SURE HIS STUDENTS KNEW HE CARED , be it about their grades or they themselves . this was something he felt as though most high schools lacked & knew they could benefit from had their been some sort of positive relationship between student & teacher . a student he’d been made aware of relatively early on was elena gilbert –––– someone whose parents had died recently and younger brother’s grades were suffering because of it . or so he assumed . while his concern certainly did branch out toward the youngest gilbert , he wondered about elena . her grades were steady and her social life seemed to be fine : after all he caught glimpses of the brunette with her friends at the mikaelson party the weekend prior . now she was the first one in the classroom , snapping him from his lesson - filled daze . “ elena – hey , how are you this morning ? ”
