Legal Question in Employment Law in Florida

Breach of union contract

Our company has a contract agreement that states ''Probation period for all employess covered by this Agreement shall be three (3) years from date of employment. After this period of time, the employee shall be eligible for continuing contract.'' Also after completion of probation period, an employee cannot be terminated, � unless the employee is terminated for just cause.� My 3 yrs were as of 2/12/07. As of June 30, 2007 my administrator gave me a non-renewal of contract. They are saying the contract is inteded to mean 3 contractual fiscal yrs and shall be eligible for contract means that I do not get it after three years are met unless they want to. Is this breach of contract and or wrongful termination?
