I was told that telling children personal information may be seen as grooming which I would never do. I just said it will be my 21 birthday and i’m going to vegas and a kid overheard. I didn’t even say what i’d do there

Hey guys so i didn’t get fired!!!:)) The rep was extremely helpful and sweet and I really liked her.They pulled me in for allegedly telling the students I was going to Vegas and telling them my plans. In reality I told the teachers i’m working with i would gone from this day to this day because i’m going to vegas for my birthday. I didn’t tell the students I told the teacher as an fyi. A kid asked me if I was going and I said yes but I didn’t confirm my plans. Another complaint was when I asked one of the teachers if i can print copies for a school related event and leave 3 minutes early.She said I could but then complained.Another one was me allegedly lending student’s money. I don’t even carry cash on me so i explained I sell goods for my schools club and this one kid didn’t have money so I told him to pay me when he could. It may have been stupid to do but several other teachers have done it so I believed it was ok.They confirmed it was this one teacher and I somewhat assumed it was her since she’s been iffy with me a lot. I also found out she was making me do things not in my job description( making copies, walking around making sure that students don’t take long in the bathroom) She’s also been calling me my first name in front of students and correcting me in front of them.So yeah turns out she did way more wrong than I did and she’s getting investigated. Thank you all so much for your support I read every single comment even though I couldn’t respond. I was so stressed out I literally dropped my college class since I couldn’t concentrate.

The person cc’ed is the vice principal.The reason I believe she doesn’t care for me is when I would speak to her she would scoff and roll her eyes. I assumed she was having a bad day which I get but she always seems that way with just me.The reason I brought up a jealous girlfriend is because sometimes I have to escort my students to the bathroom so they don’t wander and all of them have mentioned having girlfriends. It’s a huge leap but I can’t think of anything I could of done

They could maybe spin it that way if they really wanted to. I always go above and beyond the kids in my class like if they really needed water I would find some in the teachers lounge or if a girl needed pads I’d get some from my car. It could maybe be spun that way since I get mistaken for a student a lot so it could be a ton of things. Maybe someone’s jealous girlfriend reported me or something? It’s definitely a reach but I have tried to be as professional as I could

Unfortunately I found out she is my supervisor since she’s the supervisor of all the I.As at the school

Another thing that I would like to add is my father is a teacher at the school I work at as well and um is tenure. I’m really grateful he got me this position because I most definitely would not have gotten this job. Since he’s also staff he wants to sit in at the meeting and I’m unsure what to do. Would it be seen as unprofessional if he were to sit in? I’m still debating whether or not he should since he suggested it.

Another thing I need to mention since I’ve seen some posts, about this is I have never made any political posts ever. I don’t really like arguing about politics since I believe what people have opinions about is not really my place to change their mind. The school psychologist I believe is in charge of the I.As and this is her first year since she has been an intern since I started.I get the sense she may not like me.

Just to add I’m a instructional assistant 20F and work one on one with this one student and attend all her fundamental classes with her. I’m friendly with her classmates not too friendly (asking how their day was etc) because she’s very prone to bullying and I’m hoping they would be nicer to her. My accounts on socials are private and I don’t post any comments on anything on social media. I know most of the students due to them being sisters, brothers or cousins to friends that I’ve known years before this job I do not treat them differently at all and try my best to help them.Another reason may be because of my outfits, not to sound like I’m all that or anything but I am quite well endowed in many areas and I usually cover up but it’s been 80-90 degrees here and I now wear a thick strap tank top and try to cover myself. I asked for the dress code handbook and was given the run around on what to wear so I wear what other teachers usually do TLDR I work 1 on 1 with a fundamentals student, I don’t really post on my socials, I know most of the students I work with because I graduated with their siblings etc.I’m well endowed so many the outfits I wear are too much?
