32 Appeal from the United States District Court for the
33 Western District of New York (Larimer, J.).
1 UPON DUE CONSIDERATION, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED
2 AND DECREED that the judgment of the United States District
3 Court for the Western District of New York be AFFIRMED.
4 Appellant appeals from a judgment of the United States
5 District Court for the Western District of New York
6 (Larimer, J.) that granted Defendant-Appellee Webster
7 Central School District’s (the “School District”) motion for
8 summary judgment. We assume the parties’ familiarity with
9 the underlying facts, the procedural history, and the issues
10 presented for review.
11 We review a district court’s grant of summary judgment
12 de novo and draw all factual inferences in favor of the non-
13 moving party. See Paneccasio v. Unisource Worldwide, Inc.,
14 532 F.3d 101, 107 (2d Cir. 2008). “Summary judgment is
15 appropriate only if there is no genuine dispute as to any
16 material fact and the movant is entitled to judgment as a
17 matter of law.” Kuebel v. Black & Decker Inc., 643 F.3d
18 352, 358 (2d Cir. 2011) (internal quotation marks omitted).
19 For substantially the same reasons set forth in the
20 district court’s thorough and well-reasoned decision and
21 order, we conclude that the district court properly granted
22 summary judgment to the School District on Plaintiff-
2
1 Appellant Jennifer Heaphy’s claims of unlawful
2 discrimination and retaliation.
3 For the foregoing reasons, the judgment of the district
4 court is hereby AFFIRMED.
