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.

Students Acquire A Skill For Skiing!

Seventy-one Junior High students took to the slopes at the Grand Geneva Resort, Friday night for an evening of skiing.  After many of the students took ski lessons they were on their own, swishing downhill and feeling the cold, brisk air on their faces.  Students were able to warm up in the lodge with hot chocolate, hamburgers, and nachos.  A good time was had by all.
