June 06, 2011 — It's been a time of transition for Rachel Olvera of the Hayden Fourth Ward of the Hayden Lake, Idaho Stake.



A senior at Lake City High School, Olvera ended her reign as Coeur d' Alene Junior Miss 2011 earlier this year and moved onto being valedictorian for her graduating class this month. Rachel officially earned the title of "Junior Miss" on March 20, 2010.

Education and service top the list of priorities for this accomplished senior. Rachel has volunteered as a tutor for the past two years at Lake City in their free after-school tutoring program.

Being elected to the title of Junior Miss, Rachel felt it happened because of her commitment to her schoolwork, her community service and sense of self-confidence. She points to effort and dedication as keys on the path to realizing her divine potential.

"Having a testimony of my Heavenly Father and Savior allows having a sense of self worth," she said.

Olvera added that the competition was a great learning experience.
