Idk what to do I’m losing my mind
I started this job march of 2025 super excited and super helpful going out of my way to come in stay late help in other classes I even asked to shadow with the babies since I’ve never worked with infants. Found out I loved it stayed back there for a while til they hired a new assistant then I was told I’d move back there when enrollment started and they’d need another teacher. Well in June I come back and I’m in the baby baby room til they can replace the lady that retired. During this month I never complained about the environment or treatment or me developing insomnia from the way this 19 year old treated me never complained about the “I don’t wanna work with white people” remarks or the cussing towards me around the kids or smart comments nothing. I actually reverted back to behaviors I had when I was in an abusive relationship so much so my boyfriend was asking me what was wrong and why I was acting this way. I’m a float so I wasn’t gonna complain cause what was gonna happen anyway. Well I come back from the weekend after a festival and the teacher in the room I was supposed to be moved to told my boss I was saying her assistant didn’t know how to do anything that I was better than her and that I was telling parents that they should’ve ask her anything and that I was overstepping. I never did these things. Those girls do those things to that lady. In fact the previous month the assistant didn’t do something and my boss asked me why I didn’t and I specifically said it wasn’t my place to overstep. They kicked me out of those classes and now I basically just clean up lunch and snack and don’t interact with the kids any more. Since then I’ve been blamed for drama and bullying those girls have done to that assistant despite me never being in that room. I come in every day expecting to be accused of something or get in trouble. Today my boss texted me I’d be working in those rooms and I said I don’t feel comfortable doing that and she told me I had to. Mind you they bully their assistants one of which finally complained and they said “she was just in a bad mood today” then she blew up and got sent home. Another girl has also asked to be moved from the rooms and countless others have quit. Yet these girls are left to run around doing whatever they want. I don’t know what to do I don’t know if I can file an eeoc complaint about the white people comments or the bullying the other girls are Muslim and elderly so they definitely are protected. I have tests with time stamps of me complaining about xyz so I could easily get those. Advice?? Should I go to hr?
