The Bringing Out Head Start Talents (BOHST) project modified existing materials and procedures from the Retrieval and Acceleration of Promising Young Handicapped and Talented (RAPYHT) model in order to train Head Start personnel, parents, and volunteers to identify and program for Head Start children who are functionally or potentially bright/gifted/talented. The five components of the BOHST project are described: (1) general programming (to enrich thinking skills), (2) identification of talent or gifts, (3) talent programming (in such areas as art, music, reading, science, mathematics, psychomotor ability), (4) parent programming, and (5) transition to public schools. Program results are reported for an intervention group (N=234) whose staff and parents received complete BOHST training, and for a control group (N=212). Those from each group identified as bright/gifted/talented (N=24 and N=18, respectively) were administered a pre/post-test battery, as were an additional set of nonidentified children from both groups. Among reported results were the following: on the "Torrance Thinking Creatively in Action and Movement" test, children in the comparison group had substantial decreases on posttest scores, while scores of both groups of children in the intervention group increased; on the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children, both identified children (gifted/bright/talented) and nonidentified children made gains over their comparison group counterparts.
