What do educators think about NoRedInk?

NoRedInk has completely transformed the way I teach grammar and writing in my class. Students start each concept at their own level and learn at their own pace, and because of this type of delivery, my students not only learn grammar, they master it.

We are excited to inform you that Northwest ISD offers SchoolCash Online as our preferred method of payment for all school fees, including everything from field trips to yearbooks.

Benefits to parents and schools

SchoolCash Online helps parents and community members pay school-related fees safely, quickly, and easily. In addition to convenience for yourself, you will help increase efficiency and security at your school by making payments directly into your school's bank account. This allows teachers and secretaries to focus on helping students, and not counting cash. In addition, you are immediately informed about school activities!

How to create a SchoolCash Online account:

Our SchoolCash system sends an invitation email to primary guardians, who can click a link to start the registration process and attach their student(s) to their profile. They can then optionally make their students available to the profiles of a family member, assuming that family member has created an account.

How it works

Powered by KEV Group, SchoolCash Online is the industry leader in the safe and secure management of school fees. This system puts all of the school-related fees for your student online for purchase. Schools post their items and activities and assign the relevant fees to your student, so you can then make purchases online using your credit/debit card. This allows you to stay informed about upcoming school activities while keeping track of the school fees that require your attention.
