When adding your student(s) to your new PaySchools account, make sure you are selecting the correct district because there are three Northwestern districts. You need to select Northwestern LS- Clark Cty. Thank you!

PaySchools is now LIVE! We will no longer be using EZ-Pay for any payments. Instead, you will now be prompted to use Pay Schools for all payments, fees, adding money to lunch accounts, as well as completing lunch applications. Create your account by using your computer or tablet and go to www.payschoolscentral.com or by downloading the PaySchools Central app on your phone at the Apple Store or Google Play. Complete account registration and link your students to the account with their student ID #s. Students should know their #s from going through the lunch line daily. If not, please contact the buildings to obtain them from a secretary.

April 14, 2022 Dear Northwestern Families: Beginning April 18, 2022, we will no longer be using EZ-Pay for any payments. Instead, you will now be prompted to use Pay Schools for all payments, fees, adding money to lunch accounts, as well as completing lunch applications. We will be adding more information on our website including how to set up a new account in the next few days. As of April 18, 2022, all balances, payments and school fees will be automatically transferred for your convenience. We understand that this is a big change however, due to unforeseen issues it has become necessary. We believe this will be a more convenient way for parents to manage all student fees and lunch accounts. We appreciate your efforts and patience during this transition! Thank you, Northwestern Local Schools
