Register with FOCUS!
If you have not yet activated your Parent Portal for FOCUS, you will need to do so ASAP.
FOCUS is the software program Brevard County uses for grade reporting. Brevard County’s Focus Parent Portal provides parents and guardians with a view of their child’s assignments, grades, attendance information and current class averages.
Registration for the 2023-2024 school year will be completed online using the BPS Parent Portal on FOCUS.
For the protection of your child’s confidential information, the following secure procedures have been put in place for parents and guardians to register for a FOCUS Parent Portal account. The parent/guardian will need a valid email address, your child’s student ID number, birthdate and a FOCUS PIN. To get the information required to activate your parent portal (child’s student ID and FOCUS PIN – not the same as your student’s FOCUS PIN #), the parent/guardian will need to bring a valid photo ID to the office during regular office hours.
Don’t delay in getting your Parent Portal for your FOCUS account activated.
