 8        Plaintiff-appellant Barbara Zinnamon argues that the
 9   district court erred in dismissing her complaint pursuant to
10   Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6). We assume the
11   parties’ familiarity with the underlying facts, the
12   procedural history, and the issues presented for review.
13
14        We affirm for substantially the reasons stated in the
15   district court’s opinion. See Zinnamon v. N.Y.C. Dep’t of
16   Educ., No. 08-CV-1399 (E.D.N.Y. Oct. 8, 2008).
17
18        Finding no merit in Zinnamon’s remaining arguments, we
19   hereby AFFIRM the judgment of the district court.
