any [calendar] FISCAL year in which a teacher completes at
least 700 hours of service, there shall be included in his
eligibility service a full year of eligibility service.
Eligibility service may not be recognized for any fiscal
year in which the teacher completes less than 700 hours of
service. Any [calendar] FISCAL year after the year in which
a teacher first becomes employed during which he does not
complete more than 350 hours of service shall be considered

becomes 62 years old may not be recognized as eligibility
service, until the teacher completes 1 year of eligibility
service following the break in service. However, if a
teacher who has not completed the eligibility requirements
for a vested retirement allowance incurs a break in service
in which the number of consecutive 1-year breaks in service
equals or exceeds the aggregate number of years of
eligibility service rendered before the break in service,
