About Mrs. Kneece:
This year is my 36th year of teaching. My experience has been teaching four-year-old Kindergarten, five-year-old Kindergarten, First Grade and Third Grade. I received both my undergraduate and graduate degrees from the University of South Carolina.
While I absolutely love teaching, reading to my students is probably my favorite activity throughout the school day. If I were allowed to, I would read ALL day long to my students!! My goal each and every day is to inspire my students to want to read.
I am the mother of four sons (Zachary, Andrew, Matthew and Daniel). Andrew and his wife Lexy are the parents of baby Carson. My husband Brad and I enjoy spending time with our family. We are active members of Union United Methodist Church

Hi! I am Laura Wilcenski. My husband, Bin, and I live in Irmo with our two daughters. One attends Dutch Fork Middle School and one is a junior at Spring Hill High School. We also have two dogs, Max and Ruby!
I have been teaching preschool for the past 7 years and I am SO excited to begin a new chapter at Dutch Fork Elementary School.
In my spare time I enjoy reading, baking, and working out.
I am looking forward to a great year!
