Ok here's the deal... yesterday in life science we
hade a chapter 2 test. I studied really hard and I
was confident that I would ace that test. But then
I got stuck on one of the problems... So I went to my life science teacher to ask a question where the girl sitting next to me took my life science journal quickly looked in my notes for the answers then left it on the ground where I was sitting to make me look as if I were cheating. When I came back I looked down surprised to see my notebook open then a kid told on the teacher that I was cheating. I got sent to the principle's office and he said he would talk to my life science teacher get this figured out and I knew I had no chance on getting everybody to know that she cheated not me. I left my parents work number so they could call them if worst comes to worst. Now I am so freakin worried.... what should I do imagine my parents dissapointed in me.
Tell your parents what actually happened. If there was any part of this that you messed up on even a little bit think about it and let your parents know how you can do better on that in future.
If you're trying to handle this without ratting on the student next to you, talk to your parents about that too and see what they think.
In any discussions, focus on facts and solutions, not on blame or excuses. Keep your voice calm and in an low register. Listen and understand. Let the other person know you're listening and heard them. Respect more than you request respect.

If you tell the pricipal, the teacher, and your parents EXACTLY what happend and look at them straight into the eye with a very serious look... they'll know you arn't lieing. Tell the teacher you think it was that other girl that cheated and that she should have a talk with her.
