The walk's purpose is to reach students who have dropped out of school and convince them to re-enroll and finish high school.
Volunteers make sure they prepare for the visits by gathering information on every single student they visit. They take a look at how many credits students need to graduate and what TUSD programs would benefit them if they do choose to re-enroll.
