Get the best of both worlds
Students in grades 9-12 may opt to attend Lehigh Career & Technical Institute for a full day. Full-day students take college-prep academic courses in LCTI’s Academic Center, rather than at their sending high schools. It’s the best of both worlds — career and technical education programs plus academic courses — in one place.

Academic Center classrooms are equipped with the latest teaching and learning tools, including interactive whiteboards and laptops.

Dual-enrollment options
Eligible students can get a head start on their postsecondary education by enrolling in courses at nearby Lehigh Carbon Community College.
Challenging coursework
The Academic Center’s college-prep courses meet or exceed graduation requirements, preparing students for college and career success.
Integrated curriculum
Academic lessons complement LCTI’s career and technical education programs through hands-on and problem-based learning activities.
Community connection
