It serves Heidelberg, Lowhill, Lynn, and Weisenberg Townships. The district is composed of approximately 2,250 students, with two elementary schools, Weisenberg Elementary and Northwestern Lehigh Elementary, one middle school, and one high school. All schools offer gifted programs and special education programs. In 2004-2005, the Northwestern Lehigh School District completed a Facility Master Plan (FMP) to analyze and document the status of all District facilities. The purpose of the FMP was to determine the extent, priority, and estimated costs of much needed facility repairs. Based on this study, the District engaged the help of many employees and community members to prioritize the needed repairs, renovations, and construction, and align this work with District resources. Their mascot is the Tiger and their school colors are black and gold. The high school is affectionately called "Corncob High" and by its students, a reflection of the surrounding farmland. High school{{See also|Colonial League}}Northwestern Lehigh High School was built in 1950. Over the years, the school has received numerous additions, the most recent being in 2007-2008. A new gym, and 5th grade wing was added onto the elementary school, and the 5th grade moved down to the elementary school due to the lack of space in the middle school. Prior to the construction of the High School building, students completed their education at either Parkland High School, Slatington High School or Kutztown Area School District. Starting in the 2009-2010 school year and completing in the 2010-2011 school year the high school received major renovations to its interior structure.
