If you read the article, what the school is trying to accomplish is to locate students that are on campus but not in class for first period to force them to show up in first period.
The reason is that the school's funding is based on the number of kids marked as in attendance in first period.
So your suggestions wouldn't work for what they want to accomplish because they need to locate a student anywhere on campus at any time so they can send someone to that location to find them.

The article reads: But with the RFID tracking, students not at their desk but tracked on campus are counted as being in school that day, and the district receives its daily allotment for that student. They are counted as being in school; they don't have to be at their seats per the article. Won't swiping in serve the same purpose? If somebody is swiped in, he is counted in.
