In the video, Seifert admits to the students that he is dating Barker but says he’s in love with her.

"We are a little bit more than dating, because I am completely in love with her," Seifert says as students are heard screaming with excitement. "And I was wondering if Ms. Barker would like to become Mrs. Seifert."

Seifert proceeded to get down on one knee and proposed.

The students in the classroom could be heard erupting in more excitement.
