Moody Advanced Professional Studies (MAPS)
MAPS Applications: 2025-26 School Year
Current HP Sophomores and Juniors: Have you been thinking about taking a MAPS course next year? (Yes…it’s as incredible as students say!)
Due to the extended period of time when the network was not allowing us to accept applications, we have decided to extend the deadline for applications to the end of day on Thursday, January 23rd.
MAPS Mission
The Moody Advanced Professional Studies (MAPS) program is a profession-centered approach to education, offering juniors and seniors unique learning experiences leveraging team projects and class presentations while earning course credits. The professional skills acquired through this program equip students with critical competitive advantages as they prepare for post-secondary education and professional careers. The curriculum is augmented by the frequent participation of industry guest speakers, real-world challenges, and modern projects developed in collaboration with local businesses and universities. Some MAPS focus areas are co-taught by two teachers over two consecutive class periods, while others are a single course taught by one teacher. You can learn about each of our focus areas and our outstanding teachers on this page.
The application process for being admitted to a MAPS focus area begins in the late fall with tours and information sessions provided to students and their parents. Students interested in applying must complete the online application which will be posted later this fall.
Please come by and visit with us or contact Ms. McKeithen or Dr. Orsak with any questions.
