your embushure( i know that its misspelled)
most likely because on most notes on clarinet...the player tends to bit down on the mouthpiece....when all that is doing is pinching the sound

altissimo notes are the most difficult notes to get in tune. it relies on your embouchure and air support. if one of these is lacking you will be out of tune and/or squeak or drop to a lower note. use your diaphragm for air support. your gut should feel hard and your air speed should be like a cat's hiss. your gut should have the feeling like someone is going to punch you. don't pinch your notes out, your embouchure shouldn't be changing a whole lot. also the G#/Eb key hould be pressed down to bring up the pitch of the note. hope this helps.
