Such teachers shall be placed on\na preferred eligible list of candidates for appointment to a vacancy\nthat may thereafter occur in an office or position under the\njurisdiction of the sending district and the receiving district similar\nto the one such teacher filled in such receiving district. The teachers\non such preferred list shall be reinstated or appointed to such\nvacancies in such corresponding or similar positions under the\njurisdiction of the sending district or the receiving district in the\norder of their length of service in such receiving district, within\nseven years from the date of the abolition of such office or position.\n 4. For any such teacher as described in subdivision two of this\nsection for salary, sick leave and any other purposes, the length of\nservice credited in such receiving district shall be credited as\nemployment time with such sending district.\n 5.

Such\nselection of the particular sending district by such teacher is to be\nbased upon each teacher's seniority in such receiving district, with the\nright of selection passing from such teachers with the most seniority to\nsuch teachers with least seniority.
