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.

Senator Dan Kotowski visits the 7th and 8th grade!

Pennoyer school is very grateful to Senator Dan Kotowski for spending quality educational time with the Pennoyer 7th and 8th grade students today! The senator interacted with the students on topics such as state finances, policy making, community issues, and governance. The senator's visit is part of the Pennoyer school commitment to partnerships with government, business, and the community as we all partner together to educate our youth!  Pictures of Senator Kotowski's visit will be posted.
