By 1939, there were about 250 schools established and over 40,000 students in Bais Yaakov schools.
One of her students was Rebbetzin Vichna Kaplan, founder of the first Bais Yaakov high school and teachers' seminary in America.
In her will, she wrote: "My dear girls, you are going out into the great world.
Your task is to plant the holy seed in the souls of pure children.
In a sense, the destiny of Israel of old is in your hands."
The admiration was mutual, and the girls within the movement called her "Sarah Imeinu," which translates to "Our Mother Sarah.
She had no children of her own, so the girls of the movement filled that void for her.

On the 70th anniversary of Schenirer's death in 2005, an "archival repository" was installed in Jerusalem in her honor.
In the same year, some of her women supporters set out on a mission to restore her tombstone.
Her original tombstone was destroyed when the Kraków-Płaszów concentration camp was built.
Her tombstone was restored in 2005.
Upon the restoration, the director of the Central Bais Yaakov gave a eulogy for Schenirer, and closed it by saying, "Frau Schenirer, we are not merely placing a memorial on your grave site.
We are placing it upon our hearts: for us, and for all the generations who will come after us."

Today there are many Bais Yaakov schools that carry Schenirer's name, including an institute in New York that caters to religious Jewish women and girls allowing them to complete their undergraduate and graduate studies in a religious environment, offering courses in Social Work, Social Sciences, Education, Graphic design and more.
