Maupin House is an independent, family-owned publisher based in Gainesville, Florida.
Since 1990, we have been privileged to publish professional resources for K-12 teachers. But not just any resources. We're picky. Our resources are research-based and classroom-proven.
Because our authors are teachers, or educational consultants who are still teachers at heart, our resources reflect their recognition of, and their familiarity with, the challenges that teachers face in today's classroom.
We respect our teachers, and we love to hear what's on your mind. Please feel free to call or email us if you have an idea for a resource that you need or to comment on a Maupin House resource that you are using.
Best regards and best wishes,
Julia Graddy

The Concord Review
was started in March 1987 by Will Fitzhugh to find and
acknowledge exemplary history research papers by
high-school students in the English-speaking world and
distribute them in a quarterly journal to inspire more
reading of history and more work on history research
papers by other high-school students. The journal offers
the Ralph Waldo Emerson Prizes to students published in
The Concord Review. In 1998, they started the
National Writing Board to assess and report on
high-school history papers. Thirty-nine colleges now
endorse this assessment service, including Harvard,
Princeton, and Yale. In 2002, TCR Institute was created
to study academic work by high-school students. All of
these efforts promote the reading of non-fiction books
and the development of academic expository writing
competence among secondary students to prepare them for
the academic demands of college life.
