Would this be considered plagiarism?

So one of the schools I am applying to weights the essay pretty heavily. One of the options you can choose is to give your own essay, meaning your own topic etc. This past year in school we had to write personal philosophy essays and throughout the whole period our teacher kept telling us that we can use these for college admissions. I die really well on mine and figured I could use it for this college essay prompt. Since my actual essay is significantly longer than what is needed for the college, would it be plagiarism if me and my teacher edited the essay and then submitted it. I don’t mean in any way that the teacher would be writing the essay. Is it plagiarism to submit an essay you already wrote as your college essay? Thanks, and if this was confusing I can try to clear it up.
