Austin St. John - the high school football coach for the Red Ranger, who tells him (right after he becomes the Red Ranger) that you're only as good as your team - if you can't trust each other and rely on each other, you'll never be able to accomplish your goals.

Walter Jones - the owner of the local youth hangout (complete with a juice bar and a gym). Consoles the Black Ranger when he's having girl problems - tells him that he needs to be himself and not try to be someone he isn't - that friendships and even love are only genuine if you are who you really are, and not someone you're not.

David Yost - the science teacher. Explains to the Blue Ranger the importance of never being afraid to take on new challenges, despite how difficult they may be. That real power comes from numerous places - not just muscle - and how you wield that power defines you.

Karan Ashley - high school counselor. Explains to the Yellow Ranger that you don't have to be the person who can do everything - that your flaws can often times be your strength. To trust in your friends to pick you up when you fall, and to always be there to catch them if they happen to fall.

Amy Jo Johnson - the coach of the cheerleaders (no one does gymnastics anymore, c'mon). Explains to the Pink Ranger that everyone has qualities that make them great and that no one should ever be bullied or belittled because of their differences. That a truly good person not only looks past peoples' flaws, but accepts them for it, and in turn can make the difference between someone being depressed and someone feeling like they belong.

Johnny Yong Bosch & Steve Cardenas - the karate/martial arts instructors. They teach the Rangers throughout their training that true power is to yield rather than to escalate, to protect rather than to defeat, to use as a last resort as opposed to starting a situation. That even the smallest and weakest among us all can rise up to defeat a challenge.

Jason David Frank - the grand master sensei of the karate school. Teaches the Rangers to look past what they see because perception isn't always reality, that even someone who appears to be evil can have quite a bit of good in them, and to never, EVER, give up on each other or their friends (playing back on his time in Green With Evil).

I'd be okay with that.

This is EXACTLY what I had in mind. Except you forgot about Bulk, the School Principle telling them that there are things in this world worth protecting and vastly more important then themselves. And then Skull with be playing the most EPIC piano during the Megazord battle.
