FRANKLIN COUNTY, Ky. (LEX 18) — A Franklin County teacher got a Christmas surprise and her students got to witness the special moment.

Two Franklin County school teachers are engaged and a video captured the proposal. Peaks Mill Elementary school teacher Paige Walker was stunned when she received a proposal from her boyfriend, a fellow teacher.

Mike Newell, a teacher at The Academy in Frankfort, swung by the school's pajama day to pop the question. Of course, she said yes.
