Young eco-buffs pounded the pavement to promote a healthy, safe and green life during an awareness walk at Public School 255.

The bright-eyed bunch strode alongside their teachers for the inaugural “We’re Walking Here NYC” trek, circling the Midwood school – 1866 East 17th Street – to cheers from pedestrians and motorists.

Organized by Adaptive Physical Education teacher Denise Palermo, the stroll was part of a city-wide effort to alert the school community to the benefits of putting its best foot forward.
