Penns Manor Area High School is a public high school in Indiana County, Pennsylvania, serving the communities of Clymer and Heilwood, as well as Cherryhill and Pine Townships. The campus is located between the communities at the junction/multiplex of Routes 403, 553, and 580.
Penns Manor Joint School District was formed in 1952 when the Clymer, Pine Township, and Cherryhill school districts came together. The current high school was built in 1960 and the former high schools were then used as elementary schools. When deciding on a name for the school, the suggestions included Pinemer and Penns Manor, among others. Penns Manor was chosen and the new high school was opened in the fall of 1960. A complete, $6.9 Million Dollar renovation was completed in 1994.
