Students of slain teacher Jonathan Levin say they are pleased that a Bronx street has been named for the murdered educator.

Jonathan Levin Way will be the new name of the stretch of East 172nd Street between Sheridan and Morris avenues, where Taft High School is located.

The son of Time Warner CEO Gerald Levin was murdered in his Manhattan apartment for his ATM PIN number, police say.
