When a student who is eligible for special education under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act "IDEA", 20 U.S.C. Section 1411, et seq., reaches age eighteen or is emancipated by a court of competent jurisdiction, all rights accorded to the student's parents under this article transfer to the student except as provided in Sections 59-33-330 and 59-33-340.
