The Lehigh Career and Technical Institute is an extension of the home school. The various programs offered are an integral part of the curriculum of the home high school. Students who take a Lehigh Career and Technical Institute program have the option to go for a full or a half day. Half day students continue to take their required academic subjects at the home school during one-half of the school day and attend LCTI the other half-day for their specialized career program. Students choosing the full day option would get their academic classes at LCTI as well as there specialized career program.
Diplomas awarded at graduation are given only by the home school and not LCTI. Lehigh Career and Technical Institute does, however, present a certificate to each graduating student who has successfully met LCTI standards. Lehigh Career and Technical Institute graduates also receive a listing of competencies completed in their skill area.

LCTI ADMISSIONS PROCESS
Interested students must consult their home school counselor concerning specific entrance procedures. Since the selection of a high school program is a very important decision which should be made only after an evaluation of all information, it is imperative that parents actively assist the student in the selection of a high school program. Parents are urged to contact the career and technical counselor at 610-799-1340 or 610-799-1366, if they have any questions regarding specific vocational-technical programs.
The home school counselor and the Lehigh Career and Technical Institute Student Services staff will review all applications in light of the student's past record and potential for success in specific programs.
