The Gilder Lehrman History School is a series of live interactive courses with Gilder Lehrman master teachers. It initially launched as Pop-Up History School in May 2020 and has since offered students more than fifteen courses. The program’s goal is for students to be interested and excited about the content presented, leaving each lesson more knowledgeable about a new idea, theme, event, document, or pivotal moment.
History School is led by some of the top teachers in the nation, including many who have been recognized for their excellence through our History Teacher of the Year award. You can visit individual course pages to learn more about our team of teachers.
