Charles Pointer appeals the district court’s 1 adverse grant of summary judgment on his retaliation claim against defendant St. Louis Board of Education. Having carefully reviewed the record de novo, we conclude the district court properly granted summary judgment, because Pointer was unable to adduce any proof that the defendant’s decision not to rehire him was causally connected to a charge of discrimination he allegedly filed with the Equal Employment Opportunities Commission in 1984. Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
