Can my teacher get in trouble for this?

Question

She was spying on me in the bathroom!! She always accuses me of using my cell phone at school and she watches me.One day I was in the bathroom and I was changing stuff for my period and when I walked out she was like 2 inches away from the door staring at me and when we got back to class she yelled "I know you were using your cell phone" that made me have a bad image in front of all the good kids and I wasn't going to tell her what I was really doing.She took me to the office and told the principal I was using my phone when I never even said I was.Then I finally told them what I was doing and she said I was making up fake excuses and she gave me detention for SATURDAY MORNING AT 5:30a.m.

my brother said just don't go so I didn't and now they are holding me back in the grade.I just think they made something out of nothing now this could ruin my chances of getting into a good college and that means I won't get a good job.

I know this sounds crazy but my school is way too STRICT!

Answer 1

I don't know if you were using your cell phone or not. One of the hardest lessons in life is learning how to deal with being treated "unfairly".  There is nothing wrong with taking the time to explain the truth, but sometimes we just have to accept the consequence.  Skipping detention didn't hurt your teacher, it hurt you.  Now your in more trouble and proved to your teachers that you are defiant.  Let it go and gracefully accept the consequence.

My guess is that if your teacher was spying on you, you've been in trouble before.  Take some time to turn it around.  When your teachers start noticing positive behavior, they'll start to trust you more and stop "picking" on you.

Answer 2

You should have pulled out the tampon and showed them...lol or at least threatend to do so! Id get my mom to call the school and btw you cant get kept back in school for not going to detention. I dont care if its a pvt school or not. Its just a threat they are trying to use to scare you

Answer 3

Give her a piece of your mind! let her have it then change to public school!

Answer 4

Go to the principal and insist that your teacher give proof that you were using your phone. Any proof she offers will show that she was spying on you in the bathroom. See if she wants to pursue that line of complaint.

Answer 5

If you actually weren't using your cellphone, then you shouldn't be in any trouble. You don't have to tell anyone what you were really doing.

The thing is your teacher has NO proof you were using a cellphone at all, because you weren't. Could you involve your parents?

Answer 6

if you are telling the whole truth........Id say tell your parents and not let them get away with this. If you were really not on that phone...make her prove it!!!  Your parenst can call teh cell phone company and get a print out of all calls you made and the time. Thers your proof. NOw if you are innocent here you will do this cause I know I wouldnt let my teacher get away with that when I was a kid.

Answer 7

Report the situation to the school board and raise h**l about it.  Teacher has an obsession, either about you or about cell phones.

Answer 8

One detention will ruin your chances of getting into a good college? One detention and they're holding you back a grade?

Err, no. You need to face up to reality. Neither of these things will happen based on one single incident. So what have you been doing the whole rest of the year that's actually the problem?

Answer 9

if this is a for-real post

your cell phone company has records of the times your cell phone is used.  if you really weren't using during school hours, that would be easy to prove from your cellphone records.

Answer 10

omg

she cant do that!

if she does that again before you go to the toilet give her your cell phone and say see im not using it when ever you come back!!

she sounds like a total b*tch

Answer 11

thats creepy. i think she would get in trouble. it is really stupid that they would get you in that much trouble!!!!

Answer 12

Why do I get the impression you're a troll?

First of all, no teacher leaves an entire classroom of kids to spy on one student, especially in the bathroom.

Secondly, no one would admit to using a cell phone when they didn't. They'd suck up their pride and admit to changing a pad.

Thirdly, detentions are normally after school, not on weekends, and if they are on weekends, it's not at 5:30am. No teacher or principal wants to wake at 5:30am on a Saturday for one student.

Fourth of all, no school holds people back a grade for skipping detention.
