Hello and welcome to the Guidance Department!
My name is Julia Justice Wilhoit.Students and Staff call me "Mrs. Julie"
I have had ten wonderful years working at Powell Valley Elementary School.
I hope that more enjoyable years are to come at Powell Valley. I
received my Bachelor of Science in Social Work from Lincoln Memorial
University (LMU) in May of 1992. I have worked in the community
over six years as a Director of Social Services in different
health care facilities. I have also worked at Southeastern
Psychiatric Center in LaFollette, TN, for two years as a
counselor and intake worker. In December 1997, I received a
Master of Education in Counseling and Guidance from LMU. I worked
450 hours at Forge Ridge and Clairfield Schools to receive my
license. I am licensed through the State of Tennessee Department
of Education, and my area of endorsement is Pre K-12 Counselor. I
started working at Powell Valley as the school counselor in 1999.
I had a big adjustment going from nursing home social worker to school
Counselor. It was worth it! In December 2001, I received my
Educational Specialist degree in Counseling and Guidance from
LMU. My future educational goal is to receive a degree in
Christian counseling. I enjoy working with the students to help
improve our school and community. I have been the First Priority
sponsor for ten years and the Student Council sponsor for three
years.
