Plaintiffs Joseph Schleft (Joseph) and William A. and Connie Schleft, Joseph's parents, appeal the trial court's judgment entered in favor of defendant Board of Education of Los Alamos (the Board). After a bench trial, the trial court held the Board was immune from suit, that such immunity was not waived by the New Mexico Tort Claims Act, NMSA 1978, Sections 41-4-1 to -29 (Repl. 1986 and Cum. Supp. 1988) (the Act), and that the Board had no duty to inspect or maintain the electrical facility causing Joseph's injuries or to warn against any inherent dangers. We disagree with the trial court and conclude that: (1) immunity was waived under the Act; and (2) the Board had a duty to plaintiffs, as a matter of law. We thus reverse and remand for the entry of findings and conclusions on the issue of negligence. As a sub-issue of issue 2, plaintiffs also contend that the trial court erred in concluding a certain deed was ambiguous and permitting the introduction of parol evidence to prove the parties' intent. On this issue, we hold the deed was ambiguous and that the trial court was correct in allowing parol evidence.
