Ira J. Gibson appeals the district court’s 1 adverse grant of summary judgment in her employment-discrimination action against her former employer, Mill-creek of Arkansas. After careful de novo review, see Johnson v. Blaukat, 453 F.3d 1108, 1112 (8th Cir. 2006), this court agrees with the district court that summary judgment was proper. The undisputed evidence shows that Gibson, a teacher, was terminated for failing to obtain required certification; that she was not similarly situated to several other teachers who had received extensions of time to obtain certification; and that there were no openings for the new position that she sought. This court also agrees with the district court that Gibson did not make a viable 42 U.S.C. § 1983 claim.

The district court is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
