HENNESSY, J.
The plaintiffs, Maribel Colon and Maria Garcia,1 appeal from the judgment of the trial court rendered following the granting of a motion for summary judgment in favor of the defendant board of education of the city of New Haven2 on the ground that the defendant was immune from liability under the doctrine of governmental immunity.
