Watch excited students help teacher's boyfriend pull off the perfect classroom proposal
A teacher got a huge surprise when her boyfriend proposed with a little help from her students.
Sydney Garis and Parker English met through their shared passion for education. Sydney’s mother, a fellow teacher, played matchmaker after she began working with Parker. Love blossomed, and, soon after, Parker joined the staff at Sydney's school.
After about a year of dating, marriage was on the cards, though Sydney playfully warned Parker off proposing at their school.
However, Parker had other ideas and figured the classroom would be the perfect surprise location.
To pull off the proposal, Parker enlisted the help of Sydney's third grade class, who were armed with cardboard letters spelling out “Will You Marry Me?” when they entered the classroom.

The moment carried extra significance because Sydney herself had attended the same school as a third-grader. Years ago, she wandered those same hallways with her friends, dreaming about her future proposal and wedding.
