OK, I was talking with my friends in my Spanish class, making funny, yet inapprorpriate, jokes. I interrupted the teacher several times, and was doing it for the whole semester(not every day) nut often enough. I got detention and phone calls home, and not she is requesting a special circumstance aide on my behalf. I think she treats me unfairly, and keeps an eye on me. I reported her prejudice to the principal, and there will soon be a meeting. Freshman is high school. Just getting off Special Ed program.
Can it ruin college admission chance? Can it go on my permanent record? Do teachers write personalized "papers" about students, which colleges read?
How bad is my situation???

It can vary a lot from school to school, but generally schools do not keep so called "permanent records". Colleges will generally not defer admission to applicants because of things like this.
My advice is that you use this to motivate yourself for your next years in High School. I got into minor trouble freshman year and did poorly academically as well. Use it as inspiration! You will be fine, but I suggest you apologize and try not to make the situation any bigger than it is currently.

The college will look at your ACT scores, GPA and extracurricular activities. The teacher should not be able to write a paper to affect your college admission....so don't worry about that. However, if you are going to apply for college scholarships, most do require recommendation letters - so you might want to keep some teachers on your good side for that. If you're a freshman, you have a lot of growing up to do. Get the orneriness out of your system and start focusing on your future. Another thing to remember is that since you have been in special classes you may be entitled to some extra help in college or tuition help through vocational rehabilitation. I wish you the best.

i think you'll be fine -- just don't ask that teacher for a recommendation :-p
and, now that you know that she's watching you, try to keep to your best behavior in class - if nothing else, it might help her change her impression of you
