Opinion No. 34-766

May 25, 1934

BY: E. K. NEUMANN, Attorney General

TO: Mrs. Georgia L. Lusk, Superintendent of Public Instruction, Santa Fe, New Mexico. Attn.: Geo. I. Sanchez.

{*135} This is in reply to your letter of May 25, 1934. You ask the following questions:

"Can a legal and official meeting of a school board be held by two members of a three-member school board Would the acts of the two members be official and legal?"

In my opinion two members of the board, being a majority thereof, would constitute a quorum and could legally transact business at any legally called meeting of the board.

Asst. Attorney General
