Summary
Stanley Renda’s employment with Ogden School District was terminated effective Wednesday, and parents were notified that morning after his weekend arrest.
Court documents say Renda was arrested Saturday after a Friday family disturbance in Ogden, where he allegedly dragged a victim by the hair, choked her until she could not breathe and struck her repeatedly.
Prosecutors charged him with 1 count of aggravated assault causing loss of consciousness, 2 counts of domestic violence in the presence of a child involving strangulation, and 1 count of obstruction of justice.
The district said it has no information that students or school activities were involved, has reassigned existing band and music staff, and plans to keep rehearsals, performances and competitions on schedule.
