-- 1 of 2 --

-2-
Gardens School District and two of its employees. Pointer alleged that his
termination from a substitute teaching position was based on his race and sex.
After de novo review, see Kasper v. Federated Mut. Ins. Co., 425 F.3d 496, 502
(8th Cir. 2005), we conclude the grant of summary judgment was proper for the
reasons explained by the district court. Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
We also deny defendants’ motion to take judicial notice and Pointer’s motion
for sanctions.
