Penn Elementary was first opened in September 1975, using funds from Proposition 20. It started as a K-5 grade school with about 250 students. 
We now have grown our Penn family to almost 400 students!

Visitors

Visitors 

Parents are welcome on campus, but before reporting to the classroom it is important to stop by the office to pick up a visitors badge. We cannot have unannounced classroom visitors.

Los padres de familia son bienvenidos en la escuela, pero antes de ir al salon, es muy importante pasar a la oficina para recoger su gafete de visitante.  No podemos tener visitas sin registrarse en la oficina.
