Such a person shall not contribute to the retirement system, or to the public school retirement system established by sections 169.010 to 169.141, because of earnings during such period of employment. If such a person is employed in any capacity by such a district on a regular, full-time basis, or the person's part-time or temporary-substitute service in any capacity exceeds five hundred fifty hours in any one school year, the person shall not be eligible to receive the person's retirement allowance for any month during which the person is so employed or the retirement system shall recover the amount the person earned in excess of the limitations, whichever is less.
