always connect to a particular AP so that they don't roam to nearby units?

I work at a school. We are using an Extreme C35 controller. We have carts of laptops in classrooms next to each other. Is there a way to force the laptops to always connect to a particular AP so that they don't roam to nearby units?

For instance, in grades 3-4, each classroom will have their own cart of 25-30 laptops. When we start having connection issues, we often see that the laptop has connected to an AP of an adjoining room or a room down the hall instead of the one that is in the same room. We are looking for a way to have that cart of laptops always connect to the AP in its room. Maybe 8 carts per building.

Could you explain the scenario in more detail...

So the devices of cart#1 are always in room#1 and cart#2 in room#2 ?

How many carts/rooms are we talking about.
