Join the whole Kingsley crew on Wednesday morning as we battle the other elementary schools in Dunwoody to see which one will have the most walkers for this year's Georgia Walk to School Day.

Not only does the winning school get the Golden Shoe Award, but the losing principals of all the losing schools have to wear the winning school's t-shirt for a day.
