‘American Idol’ winner Iam Tongi interrupts school assembly to surprise orchestra teacher for Feel Good Friday

EastIdahoNews.com is partnering with Ashley and Ashley Outlet of Idaho Falls to honor people in our community for Feel Good Friday. Every week, we surprise someone deserving of special recognition.

Season 21 “American Idol” winner Iam Tongi was in town this week and we asked him if he’d help us surprise an incredible teacher at Sugar-Salem Junior High School. Here’s what we were told about Jenni Warner, the orchestra teacher:

Jenni Warner has a passion for music. She started playing violin when she was 3. Both her mom and grandmother were accomplished violinists and her grandfather taught music in Twin Falls for many years. Jenni has taught private music lessons for over 25 years and has taught in schools for the last 4 years. She loves going to work every day because she loves sharing her passion with the students that she has also come to love. She puts in so many hours before and after school so that she can provide the best experience possible for her students. She gets so excited when she sees students succeed and learn to appreciate music. Her energy and enthusiasm for life are infectious and the students of Sugar-Salem are so lucky to have her!

We surprised Ms. Warner with Iam during an assembly in front of the entire school. Check out the video in the player above!
