We have implemented PaySchools Central, an online payment platform, to help make managing lunch and fee payments easier for our students’ parents. The portal is easy to set up and use, both online and via the mobile app. To get started, follow the instructions below.
 
If you need help along the way, please contact us by phone or email.

5. The first time you log in, you will need to indicate which student(s) to attach to your account using the Add/View student tab.

If you are unsure of your student’s ID number, please contact the school/district registrar.  A student's ID can also be found while logged in to the ProgressBook Parent portal.
