No school shall grant a release to any child under eighteen years of age, who is registered as attending the child's school, for the purpose of attending another school, unless the consent and approval of the parents or guardians of the child is given in writing with the facts and reasons therefor. The register shall be carefully preserved, and as often as the department shall direct, the register or a true copy thereof shall be filed in the office of the department. [L 1996, c 89, pt of §2]
