Once the invoice has been issued, payment can be made online through ParentSquare. Traditional payment methods, including money orders and bank checks, will continue to be accepted at the school location.

Certified bank checks or money orders are also accepted. No personal checks or cash will be accepted. Please make certified bank check or money orders payable to: Treasurer, State of Connecticut. An invoice may be printed during registration, and a receipt will be provided once payment is received.
