Teacher doesn't trust me
I'm so upset right now! There's this one teacher who's never trusted me although I've never done anything to deserve it. As soon as something goes wrong, or something is missing - she accuses me, and I promise.. I'm NEVER the one to blame. Last week I returned my book, and today she called me to say "It is very important that you return your book, you are the only one who hasn't returned it and it is a very expensive book. Keep in mind you promised to return it at the beginning of the year" I know its not a big deal but I'm crying my eyes out! I don't feel like I deserve all this suspicion I'm getting from her. I don't like to think its a racial issue, but I am the only non-blonde in my class. What should I do about this? I do not want to take it up with the principal, I respect her as a person and wouldn't want to get her in trouble.

First of all, I am so happy you care about school and you respect your teacher. The problem is, the way she is treating you is wrong. The first thing you need to do is ask other people if they feel like she is just discriminating against you. Or maybe she is just mean and does it seem like just you? If people agree she treats you unfairly, then talk to her. Explain calmly that you didn't do whatever it is she said you did. If she discriminates against you again, then ask her what her problem with you is. Maybe there is something else... Hmmm... I went through the same thing this year with one of my teachers. You'll get through this. :)
Oh, by the way, don't let her get to you!! She is just a meanie!! XD

it is good you respect her. She shouldnt treat you like that. Ask her why, or talk to a parent/gaurdian/the principal/school counciler/another teacher. Someone. She shouldnt be treating you like that, and she either doesnt notice, or she does, and she doesnt respect who you are, or what you do.
Also, dont say its not a big deal. If it affects you to the point of crying, it is a big deal. I hope i helped, and good luck.

First and foremost, I am not aware of your age or grade. None the less, I would consult my parents in reference to these issues at hand. Your parents are adults, your teacher is an adult and the pricipal is an adult too.
I understand that you respect her, which is good and I respect you for this fact. I have 3 children and they are taught to respect their teachers, and elders, however once disrespected please escalate the issue(s) up to me for proper handling and communications. If you feeling as if you're being treated differently due to your hair color OR anything else, this needs to be addressed darling, seriously. Please tell your parents of your different experiences and each incident with this teacher so that the principal is made aware. I know that you don't want her to treat anyone else the way that she has treated you.
Good Luck and focus on your education and grades, regardless of any situation. Move the mountain don't let mountains move you.

Good for you for respecting her, even though she doesn't seem very respectful of you. That makes you the bigger person, for certain.
If it were me, I'd take it up directly with her. Ask her why she treats you differently than the rest of the class. If she says she doesn't, start pointing out to her what she does.
See if it's an issue you can solve between the two of you. If it can't be solved that way, then something else has to be done. She's a teacher, she shouldn't be that way towards any of her students.
