I read in disbelief the incredibly harsh accusations of Angelo Moreno. The brief description of a few incidents could not possibly invalidate the amazing 17-year contribution Angelo has made to our community. These complaints appear at face value to be examples of over-protective parental maneuvers so typical of Davis.

Angelo has single-handedly built the music program in the Davis school district. I remember the excitement and vision Angelo brought in 2000. He has worked tirelessly to fulfill this community’s dreams and mentor so many of our children over the years.

He is kind, but truthful, pushing the students to excel beyond their own and their parents’ expectations. If we as a community are going to pick at minor peccadilloes and risk distressing a selfless, extraordinary man, we cannot see the forest for the trees.
