(a) A school district of the first class A may enter into an agreement with an adjacent school district for the assignment of elementary and secondary students to the school district of the first class A from the adjacent school district under the following circumstances:
(1) The adjacent school district has experienced a decline in enrollment which makes the provision of such education impractical and would result in educational programming which does not meet the standards necessary to increase student achievement.

(b) Except for purposes of Article XXV,1 students who are assigned to a school district of the first class A under this section shall be considered for all other purposes students residing in the school district of the first class A, including, but not limited to:
(1) enforcement of compulsory school attendance;
(2) the provision of the program for exceptional students;
(3) disruptive student programs under Article XIX-C;2
(4) utilization of private alternative education institutions for disruptive students under Article XIX-E;3 and
(5) career and technical education.
(c) If an adjacent school district fails to make payments to a school district of the first class A providing educational services to students assigned under this section, the Secretary of Education shall deduct and pay the amounts due as documented by the school district of the first class A from any and all State payments made to the adjacent school district after receipt of documentation from the school district of the first class A.
