Gilkeson, Elizabeth C.

The Elizabeth C. Gilkeson Papers were generated by Gilkeson in the course of her professional life, through the mid to late twentieth century. Much of the materials concern her lead role on Bank Street College’s Children’s Programs, the School for Children, as well as her faculty position at Vassar and as founder of Poughkeepsie Day School. Gilkeson’s work was collected in notes, reports, speeches, correspondence, administrative files, and other formats.

This record group of the institution was generated by the division of Follow Through at Bank Street College. The late twentieth century learning model and project was developed and sponsored by Bank Street in several communities across the country. Correspondence, reports, audiovisual media, notes, curricula, and other record types document the business of the project as a whole and within each community.
