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.

Happy New Year

Welcome to 2012!

Happy new year and best wishes to all. At Pennoyer School, we are very excited to welcome back all of our students and staff on Monday. The floors are waxed, the plans are made, the rooms are ready for the energy of learning. With respect to student instruction, we aim to continue energizing the classrooms and stretching the expectations so our children have a chance to reach their highest levels of growth! Technologically, our teachers and students continue to experiment and take full advantage of modern tools for learning and teaching. Regarding our facilities, we have a great plan for maintenance, repair, and sustainable growth for many years.

Have a wonderful weekend and please join us in getting ready for the next phase of this fantastic school year!

Sincerely,

Michael Lubelfeld Ed.D.
