E-Funds for Schools

Dear Parents/Guardians,

Online payments are now available through e~Funds for Schools! This service will allow you to make payments on behalf of your student(s) for lunch account deposits and other material/activity fees.


 

e-Funds Site LinkHow do I get started?
Navigate to the e~Funds for Schools website. This can be done in 2 different ways.

 1. Log in to your family access account. On the left side of the screen, you will see the food service tab and the fee management tab. When you open either of these tabs, the screen will now include a "make a payment" option. Select "make a payment" and it will open the e~Funds for Schools webpage.

 2. Visit www.winneconne.k12.wi.us and select the Families tab. Click on the link for the e~Funds for Schools’ Parent Portal.

When you have found your way to the e~Funds site:

  1. Select “Register Here” and provide the requested information
  2. Select “Sign Up!” after you have read and agreed to the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy
  3. You will be brought to the Student Management webpage
  4. Enter the Family Number (this is the primary phone number that the district has on record for you, enter the number with no dashes/spaces/etc), along with your student’s last name. Select “Add”.  If that does not bring up your family information, students may be added separately by using the Student ID and last name.
  5. Once all students have been added, select “Continue to Account Overview”

Will this cost me anything?
No. There are no additional costs for paying online, and we appreciate you doing so.
