I am quite surprised that any parent would encourage you to pursue this. That is not because I think it is a school girl crush...it is because he is a man in a position of trust, and you are expecting him to breach the professional standards that accompany his job.
I was a lecturer a few years ago and my students were all in their early 20's. One male student approached me in an inappropriate way at one point, and I made it clear that our relationship was strictly professional. If we had met in a bar then perhaps I would have gone on a date with him since we were only a few years apart in age but it was totally not possible as we were in a professional relationship of tutor-student.
If your teacher is attracted to you then it is worrying - not only because you are still at school, but how could you ever trust him with other girls if you dated him? Surely if he has his eye on you...who says he won't be looking at his other students endearingly next term? If he rejects your invite on a date then it would be really embarrassing as he is still your teacher, and you still have to go to class. If you really must pursue this, at least wait until you finish school because if you have any feelings at all for him you wouldn't want to put him under pressure with his job. You should also be aware that nasty rumours fly around schools and that could damage his reputation with his colleagues so it is best not to discuss this with your friends in class as it could just be very damaging all round.
