Danielle Carpenter, Kindergarten Teacher

I have been a part of the kindergarten team at York since 2019.  I graduated from Coastal Carolina University in 2002 and Clemson University in 2007. I have been in education since 2002 and have taught kindergarten, first, second, and third grades. I was a school counselor for a few years as well, but kindergarten is hands down my favorite!  
 
I have two beautiful daughters. My oldest attends Leesville Road High and my youngest attends school at York.  Outside of school, I love to cook, hike, travel, and read. Interior design is a hidden talent of mine. I also LOVE polka dots and all things pink!

Abby Glembocki, Kindergarten Teacher

I graduated from NC State in 2016 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education with a STEM concentration.  I completed my student teaching right here at York, and was lucky enough to be hired as a kindergarten teacher after I graduated!  I have taught kindergarten at York ever since!

I think that students are most successful when the teacher works with the family as a team.  With that being said, I love to communicate with families!  Please email me if you ever have questions or concerns: aglembocki2@wcpss.net.   

In my free time, I love shopping for new decorative items for my home, listening to country music, going to sporting events, and spending time with my family when they are in town.
