LRE Data Cohort
The Least Restrictive Environment (LRE) Data Cohort was formed in 2010 to provide districts with a process for analyzing their educational environment data (both quantitative and qualitative). Its focus is to improve the school climate with a more robust continuum of placements so that students with individualized education programs (IEPs) have greater access to the general education environment.

- The percent of students with disabilities, ages 6-21, inside the general education classroom 80% or more of the school day.
