Legal Question in Criminal Law in New York

Harassment

I am a senior in high school. I was out with a friend one night and we decided to call one of our teachers to invite her out to dinner. We called several times, getting her answering machine all but once. My friend was nervous and hung up on her. Later that night I received a call from the teacher. The teacher threatened to press charges. I would like to know what, if anything, she could charge us with.
