Teacher Who Walks Students Home Every Day Gets Recognition With Viral Photo

Schneider is one of five teachers from Whitney Achievement Elementary who volunteer to walk home with 200 students who live within a mile or two of the school, he told Today. Each day after school, Schneider — along with teachers Kevin Sullivan, Auriel Rolle-Polk, Allison Thompson, Valeria Bostick — divide the kids into two groups based on where they live and accompany them to ensure sure they all arrive home safely. 

“We can just get to know the kids and talk about what they did over the weekend or how their behavior was at school that day or what they learned,” Schneider told Fox13.
