POST: Seniority Date

Here is my situation. I have been teaching since 2004 at
my district. The first 2 years on a probationary contract
then on a permanent tenured contract for the last 2
years. My seniority date is listed as 9/7/04.

The teacher who may bump me taught on an emergency permit
who had a temporary contract from 2001-02 to 2005-06 and
on an intern credential from 2006-07 to present. Our
contract says that your seniority date is determined by
your first day on a probationary contract. This would be
9/7/06 for him. They just posted a revised seniority list
and his date was not 9/7/06, but 9/11/01, which was the
first day he taught with an emergency credential. The
teacher is very well liked on staff by our union rep. The
union rep warned me today that I am the lowest according
to the seniority date and I may be bumped. What can I
do? How do I challenge his seniority date? Or can I
challenge the seniority date?
