GRAMMY’s Music Educator Award
Ms Amy Rangel teaching/directing the Glendale High School Jazz Band.
Amy Rangel has always been in my top 3 biggest musical influences. I was lucky to have her for one year in middle school, so I'm part of the lucky few that had her for 5 years! She's helped me gain confidence in my skills from violin to bass to drums. She's encouraged me to try different things, and laid a path for me to explore! The way she runs the jazz program, especially, has helped me see the bigger picture in life, instead of being stuck in a high school bubble. There was always a sense of freedom in the classroom that seemed to represent what happens in a professional rehearsal. She's always kept the room open during snack and lunch to allow students to hang and jam. I graduated in 2005, and continued onto the collegiate level. I've joined many bands since, have gone on many tours, and can proudly say I'm a full time musician. I'm in the middle of recording my 2nd album with my current band, Run River North, and I still push myself because of the foundations she has laid out for me.
It's wonderful to see you in action! You're the best!

It is like inviting the world to evaluate my classroom. A bit intimidating!
How fun to be a fly on the wall in your Jazz Band class! I've always wondered what goes on in "the room." Now I know! I've been fortunate to see the awesome results on stage for three years running now and am looking forward to another fantastic Jazz Band year. Love to see how you collaborate with the kids. Thanks for all you do, Amy!
