Each MAHS student must choose a Career Pathway which focuses their elective courses toward preparing for a specific goal area. A Pathway is a broad grouping of careers that share similar characteristics and whose employment requirements call for many common interests, strengths and competencies. The five Career Pathways are: Arts & Communications; Business, Finance & Information Technology; Engineering & Industrial Technology; Human Services; and Science & Health.
