When any person under the age of eighteen years is admitted to or is

converted from one admission status to another in any school, written

hygiene legal service within three days thereof and such notice shall

specify the age of and admission procedure applicable to such person.

No such person shall be transferred to any other school without the

prior consent of such person and the prior written consent of his parent

or legal guardian unless three days prior written notice of such

proposed transfer is given to the mental hygiene legal service and an

opportunity is afforded to the service to see such person and to review

the proposed transfer. Immediately upon release or transfer of any such

person, the director of the school shall give the mental hygiene legal

service written notice thereof.
