Picture
Rachel Weyandt is a 2020 graduate of the University of Northwestern St. Paul. During her time there, she received her B.S. in Music and minor in Communication. She was president and section leader of the Amata Women’s Choir and the recipient of Legacy, Music, Academic, and Leadership scholarships. She worked hard in high school gaining college credit. Because of this, she graduated within three years, one of which was part time.

Rachel has won multiple Minnesota Music Teachers Association contests, and is now an active member who has had more than 25 students win the district competition. She has also won state awards for piano and spoken word and placed in the top 15 at the National Fine Arts Competition. She now teaches music full-time, where she has 50 piano students, teaches Elementary through High School choir and Music History.

Her Miss America Organization journey started in 2014, when she won a local Outstanding Teen title. This led up to her winning the state Miss Minnesota’s Outstanding Teen 2015 title and moving on to the Miss America’s Outstanding Teen competition, where she was recognized as a top 6 finalist for the Teens in Action award.

Her Social Impact Initiative is something dear to her heart, as her parents have been doing foster care for over 10 years. “The Heart of Foster Care” encompasses all aspects of the foster system, educating others as to why it is necessary to provide support to foster families and children, encouraging others to donate their time or resources, and getting connected within the foster community.

In her free time, Rachel enjoys thrifting, reading, doing puzzles, playing cribbage, hanging out with her cat, and hanging out with her family and friends.
