TimeElement	O	SIF_Metadata’s TimeElement may be specified to indicate a time duration to which the characteristics apply (as opposed to adding new elements to Characteristics). This metadata may be supplied by systems that know a student existed in a district during a certain time period (e.g. a system initiating a student record exchange).
