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.

Italian Class Goes to Dinner

Eighth grade students in Ms. DiVita's Italian class prepared menus and set the table for an Italian feast.  Students were to order a meal speaking in Italian.  The servers were only to speak and write in Italian.  Students did a fantastic job and had a fun time doing so.
