(2), (2b), (2d) or (2e) should be imposed.

938.344(3) (3) If the juvenile alleged to have committed the violation is within 3 months of his or her 17th birthday, the court assigned to exercise jurisdiction under this chapter and ch. 48 may, at the request of the district attorney or on its own motion, dismiss the citation without prejudice and refer the matter to the district attorney for prosecution under s. 125.07 (4). The juvenile is entitled to a hearing only on the issue of his or her age.

938.35(1m) (1m) Disposition by the court assigned to exercise jurisdiction under this chapter and ch. 48 of any allegation under s. 938.12 or 938.13 (12) shall bar any future proceeding on the same matter in criminal court when the juvenile reaches the age of 17. This paragraph does not affect proceedings in criminal court which have been transferred under s. 938.18.
938.35(2) (2) Except as specifically provided in sub. (1), this section does not preclude the court from disclosing information to qualified persons if the court considers the disclosure to be in the best interests of the juvenile or of the administration of justice.

938.355(1) (1) Intent. In any order under s. 938.34 or 938.345, the court shall decide on a placement and treatment finding based on evidence submitted to the court. The disposition shall employ those means necessary to promote the objectives specified in s. 938.01. If the disposition places a juvenile who has been adjudicated delinquent outside the home under s. 938.34 (3) (c) or (d), the order shall include a finding that the juvenile's current residence will not safeguard the welfare of the juvenile or the community due to the serious nature of the act for which the juvenile was adjudicated delinquent. If the judge has determined that any of the conditions specified in s. 938.34 (4m) (b) 1., 2. or 3. applies, that determination shall be prima facie evidence that a less restrictive alternative than placement in a secured correctional facility or a secured child caring institution is not appropriate. If information under s. 938.331 has been provided in a court report under s. 938.33 (1), the court shall consider that information when deciding on a placement and treatment finding.
938.355(2) (2)Content of order; copy to parent.

938.355(2)(b)1m. 1m. A notice that the juvenile's parent, guardian or legal custodian or the juvenile, if 14 years of age or over, may request an agency that is providing care or services for the juvenile or that has legal custody of the juvenile to disclose to, or make available for inspection by, the parent, guardian, legal custodian or juvenile the contents of any record kept or information received by the agency about the juvenile as provided in s. 938.78 (2) (ag).
938.355(2)(b)2. 2. If the juvenile is placed outside the home, the name of the place or facility, including transitional placements, where the juvenile shall be cared for or treated, except that if the placement is a foster home or treatment foster home and the name and address of the foster parent or treatment foster parent is not available at the time of the order, the name and address of the foster parent or treatment foster parent shall be furnished to the court and the parent within 21 days of the order. If, after a hearing on the issue with due notice to the parent or guardian, the court finds that disclosure of the identity of the foster parent or treatment foster parent would result in imminent danger to the juvenile, the foster parent or the treatment foster parent, the court may order the name and address of the prospective foster parents or treatment foster parents withheld from the parent or guardian.
938.355(2)(b)3. 3. The date of the expiration of the court's order.
938.355(2)(b)4. 4.

938.355(2)(b)5. 5. For a juvenile placed outside his or her home pursuant to an order under s. 938.34 (3) or 938.345, a permanency plan under s. 938.38 if one has been prepared.
938.355(2)(b)6. 6. If the juvenile is placed outside the home and if sub. (2d) does not apply, the court's finding as to whether a county department which provides social services or the agency primarily responsible for providing services under a court order has made reasonable efforts to prevent the removal of the juvenile from the home, while assuring that the juvenile's health and safety are the paramount concerns, or, if applicable, the court's finding as to whether the agency primarily responsible for providing services under a court order has made reasonable efforts to make it possible for the juvenile to return safely to his or her home.
938.355(2)(b)7. 7. A statement of the conditions with which the juvenile is required to comply.
938.355(2)(c) (c) If school attendance is a condition of an order under par.

938.355(2b) (2b)Concurrent reasonable efforts permitted.

938.355(2c) (2c)Reasonable efforts standards.
938.355(2c)(a)(a) When a court makes a finding under sub. (2) (b) 6. as to whether a county department which provides social services or the agency primarily responsible for providing services to the juvenile under a court order has made reasonable efforts to prevent the removal of the juvenile from his or her home, while assuring that the juvenile's health and safety are the paramount concerns, the court's consideration of reasonable efforts shall include, but not be limited to, whether:
