Jim Ned Middle School Counselor

Julie Garner

Welcome, Indians!  

I am so excited to be your school counselor on the Jim Ned Middle School campus! I started on the Jim Ned high school campus as the junior English teacher in 2006. After earning my school counselor certification, I took the position of JNMS counselor in 2024 to work with this amazing staff and these awesome students to provide support and resources for academic success, college and career preparedness, and to promote healthy social-emotional well-being as students navigate their individual paths to a successful high school career and beyond. It is my goal to encourage all students to achieve their goals and give them the tools they need to make it happen!

I find it rewarding to be there for students and help them work through whatever challenges they are facing and celebrate their successes. I value the trust that students and families place in me and the relationships I build with them. I look forward to working with you all!
