Historical Perspectives: Leta S. Hollingworth: P. S. 165 & 500: Lessons Learned
Jennifer L. Jolly
In the early 1920s, as the field of gifted education was establishing itself as a legitimate field of study and practice, Leta Hollingworth sought to understand what best classroom practices would best suit gifted students. Hollingworth built upon the work of Lulu Stedman and other pioneers in the field of gifted education, in combination with her own research, to create a curriculum and qualitatively different schooling experience for gifted students. Her groundbreaking work at P. S. 165 and 500 was chronicled in her numerous published works and provides the initial research base for practices in gifted education.
