 1 Section 1. Section 1527-c of the education law, as added by section 21
 2 of subpart F of part C of chapter 97 of the laws of 2011, is amended to
 3 read as follows:
 4 § 1527-c. Shared superintendent program. 1. Notwithstanding any other
 5 provision of law, rule or regulation to the contrary, the governing
 6 board of a public school district eligible for an apportionment under
 7 subdivision four of section thirty-six hundred two of this chapter and
 8 with an enrollment of less than one thousand students in the previous
 9 year shall be authorized to enter into a school superintendent sharing
 10 contract with no more than two additional public school districts each
 11 of which had fewer than one thousand in enrolled pupils in the previous
 12 year. Each shared superintendent arrangement shall be governed by the
 13 boards of education of the public school districts participating in the
 14 shared contract, provided that such shared superintendent contract must
 15 be approved by a duly adopted board resolution of each participating
 16 public school district prior to the commencement of services. Provided
 17 however, that this section shall not be construed to alter, affect or
 18 impair any employment contract which is in effect on or before July
 19 first, two thousand [thirteen] nineteen. Any public school district
 20 which has entered into a school superintendent sharing program will
 21 continue to be eligible to complete such contract notwithstanding that
 22 the enrollment of the public school district exceeded one thousand
 23 students after entering into a shared superintendent contract. Provided
 24 further, that this program shall only apply to shared superintendents
