Students typically don’t bring their grades with them when they drop one subject and replace it with an entirely new subject. For example, if a student transfers from Spanish to woodworking, the woodworking grade usually starts from a clean slate, unaffected by any work completed in Spanish.
This type of transfer can be completed from two locations; both methods will produce the same result.

Schools using the scheduling module can also choose to transfer students from the Scheduling tab. This allows admins to look at the graphical schedule while making changes. This process also allows multiple classes to be added when one is dropped.
