Pennoyer School District 79 is a small public district that operates a single school offering education from pre-kindergarten through eighth grade. It serves students from portions of Norridge, Harwood Heights, and unincorporated Norwood Park Township. The district is based in Norridge, Illinois. Tracing its roots to the 1830s, the Pennoyer family settled in the area and a school began in 1839 in a community home. A dedicated school building was constructed at the corner of Cumberland and Foster Avenue in 1954, with a major addition added in 2001. These milestones reflect the district’s long-standing role in providing local public education for the PK-8 population.
