Salary ranges and salary incentives for
educational officer positions shall be subject to the requirements of [sections
302A-625 and 302A-626] section 302A-625."
SECTION 5. Section 302A-626, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is repealed.
["§302A-626 Salary increases;
annual, longevity. (a) Teachers and educational officers who have
completed a year's satisfactory service and who have complied with the other
requirements of sections 302A-602 to 302A-640, and 302A-701, shall be entitled
to an annual increment.

increases; provided that the board may grant principals and vice-principals
longevity step increases more frequently than once every three years pursuant
