Meal payments moving to LINQ Connect for 2023-24

What is changing?
K12 Payment Center will no longer be used to process meal payments.  All prepaid balances have been transferred to LINQ Connect, but parents will need to create a new account on LINQ Connect.  Other school payments (school fees, etc.) will continue to be paid using K12 Payment Center.  FAQs for both the desktop and app versions of LINQ Connect are attached to this post.
