Presented in digest form are results of a followup study of 456 graduates who had been enrolled in Major Work classes for gifted students from 1938 through 1952 in the Cleveland public schools. Discussed are the study's background; results obtained from postcards sent twice a year to graduates; and the background physical, scholastic, occupationa, and emotional characteristics of students. Excerpts from graduates' evaluation of the program are included. The conclusion is made that the enrichment of the program and special classes for the gifted are sound, rewarding educational practices; that emphasis on the value of further education brings gratifying results; and that lasting values students gain justify time spent in imaginative planning.
