About Pennoyer

Pennoyer School proudly educates children from parts of Norridge, Harwood Heights, and unincorporated Norwood Park Township. During the 1830's, the Pennoyer family came from new England and settled in what is now known as Norridge. The land they settled laid between what is now East River Road and Cumberland Avenue. In 1838, members of the community met at the home of John Pennoyer to discuss the plans for the development of a school. The school began in 1839, in Pennoyer's home. In 1954 it was decided to build a new school at the corner of Cumberland and Foster Avenue. A major addition was added in 2001. The school district proudly educates children in grades PK-8.

This is a reminder about our Tech Fair, scheduled for Tuesday, September 27th, at 6:30 p.m. You will see students collaborating and discussing possible solutions, project-based learning, and students immersed in a learning experience that allows them to grapple with a problem and gain higher-order thinking skills from pursuing the solution. The recent technologies has allowed us to change some of our instructional approaches. This is all very exciting for both students and teachers.
