Attached you will find three podcasts regarding the use of TIENET and frequently requested
reports. These podcasts are very brief in length and have been developed with school-based
administrators in mind. All of these podcasts may be opened using Safari.

The first podcast addresses TIENET reports and is a general overview of how to access
all TIENET reports.

The second podcast details how administrators may access the LRE (Least Restrictive
Environment) report for their school.

The third podcast provides administrators with guidance on how to access their school’s
instructional hours report. Instructional hours are reviewed when staffing decisions are
made.
Please do not hesitate to contact your Instructional Facilitator or Resource Teacher with
additional questions.
