When our students walk across the graduation stage and leave our program, we don't always know how well they're doing. That's why it's amazing to see how well former students like Emily Brong are doing!
Mission & Philosophy
About Us
The Carbon Lehigh Intermediate Unit #21 serves as the coordinating agency that brings together diverse school districts, career and technical schools, businesses, and community groups.
It is the job of the CLIU to facilitate inter-district cooperation, provide educational and administrative services to schools, and function as a link between the Pennsylvania Department of Education and local school districts.
