A surprise ceremony in the school gym on May 27 saw Jerricka Scott, the kindergarten teacher, become engaged in front of family, friends, and the whole class. “Today at Hodges Elementary Schoolโ€™s Friday Celebration, the students and staff celebrated as they witnessed kindergarten teacher Jerricka Scott say โ€œYESโ€ to her fiancรฉโ€™s proposal,โ€ Greensboro School District 50 wrote in a Facebook post. โ€œMs. Scott was totally surprised and so were all the students as they rejoiced in this celebratory moment for her.โ€ย According to the website of Hodges Elementary School, Scott has been named ‘Teacher of the Year’.ย 

Jahmar Tate, who is engaged to Scott, told WHNS that he wanted to ask her to marry herย in front of her class because the students are like her family.ย โ€œItโ€™s important for me to make sure she knows that weโ€™re a family together,โ€ he told the outlet. โ€œItโ€™s me and you but theyโ€™re a part of your family, theyโ€™re a part of mine too.โ€ย Tate works as a counselor at Eastside High School in Atlanta, Georgia.
