Cash bond for traffic ticket, online school, how does it work?

So my friend who got a traffic ticket posted cash bond in Cook County.
He wants to do online traffic school (he is allowed to).
He posted $120 cash bond,(ticket fine) Traffic school is $147 total (with the ticket fine)
Since he posted a cash bond, can he use the bond plus + rest is check to do payment for online school?

Or will he have to pay the ticket plus school in full and he get refunded back the $120?

He got 2 different answers from the police department.

He wants to pay the fine and school via website, but he has no idea what to do.

I have done the same thing. He would only have to pay the difference.
If he wants to be sure that he gets credit, have him drive to the county court and pay the difference plus sign up for Traffic school there. Make sure he brings the bond receipt with him in case the county clerk have not received a copy from the police station.

I have also paid the difference online and received credit for the cash bond.
