The boards of education of any two or more school districts may make and enter into agreements providing for cooperative operation and administration of a program of bilingual education on a shared-cost basis. Any school district which is a party to such a cooperative agreement may be designated the sponsoring district under such agreement. The agreement entered into shall provide for a separate fund of the sponsoring school district, to which each contracting district shall pay the moneys due from it under the agreement, and all such moneys received by the sponsoring district shall be credited to such fund. The expenses of a sponsoring district attributable to bilingual education shall be paid from such fund and payment of such expenses shall not be operating expenses of the sponsoring district. Payments from the general fund of a contracting district to a sponsoring district and transfers of money from the general fund of a sponsoring district to the separate fund provided for hereunder shall be operating expenses.
