We are missing quite a few details. No, generally it wouldn't be considered kidnapping.
Please re-post with a new, expanded account of what happened.
At the very most, what you are thinking it is is "false imprisonment". Are you a minor?
Review the following: http://www.sconet.state.oh.us/rod/docs/pdf/10/2009/2009-ohio-246.pdf
Also, review the rules of actions allowed and disallowed by teachers in your state. http://www.ode.state.oh.us/GD/Templates/Pages/ODE/ODEPrimary.aspx?page=2&TopicRelationID=520
