How to Delete a Recurring Payment

Recurring payments do not end upon enrollment end date. If a student has an active recurring payment at the time of their enrollment ending for any reason, the recurring payment will only be ended if a parent logs into Parent Portal and deletes the recurring payment. For this reason, it is recommended that parents temporarily retain access to the Portal following a student's enrollment end date to modify or cancel a recurring payment as needed.

  1. Select Recurring Payments.
  2. Select the fee or food service payment you want to delete.
  3. Select Delete.
  4. Select Delete in the Confirm Delete popup.

Set up Recurring Payments for Fees

Using recurring payments, you can pay installments for a fee or pay for recurring services from the district.

Before you can set up a Recurring Payment for an Optional Fee, you must first make a payment on the optional fee. After you make your first payment, Campus assigns the optional fee to the student and the fee displays in the student's list of fees.  After you make a payment and Campus assigns the fee to the student, you can use the Recurring Payments tool to schedule a recurring payment for that fee.
