It is essential for administrators to have an accurate record of where all students are physically located throughout a school day. A student or staff's current classroom is the classroom they are currently in. Students/staff can transition classrooms throughout the day.

💡 Transitions are used to track the physical location of students. For this reason, only students who are checked into school can transition to a new classroom.
