What is the Leon County Schools Parent Portal?

Leon County Schools is excited to provide a state of the art Teacher/Parent/Student information integration system- Parent Portal! This tool enhances communication between home and school to help students reach their educational goals.

How do parents register for a focus Portal account?

To register, Parents need a Focus portal pin, student birthdate and the students ID number. If the Parent is unsure and needs guidance to register their Focus Portal account, they can visit/contact their child’s school. Can parents with a Custody Alert register for a portal account?

When the email arrives, there is a button that will show you your temporary password and then a link that takes you to the login REMEMBER!!! The password provided in the reset email IS ONLY fFOR A ONE (1) TIME USE AND IS A TEMPRARY PASSWORD!! IT DOES NOT FORCE YOU TO RESET IT BEFORE MOVING ON!! You MUST reset your password once you get access or the next time you try to login, you will be locked out again..

How do I know if all my children are listed on my Focus Portal account? What if I do not see my students listed

On the Focus Portal student page, the pulldown at the top right of the screen will contain all students linked to the Parent’s Focus Portal acct. Use the drop down in top right. Make sure you are using Google Chrome. ( If you use IE/Edge you will not see them even if they are actually there)

Can I access the Focus portal using my mobile device?

Once you have created your credentials on the portal, please download the free Leon County District Schools FOCUS app for parents and students through the Apple and Android stores. The app is a great supplement to the Focus Portal designed to enable quick and easy access while mobile.

I have done everything right, but the system keeps saying that my info doesn't match, or my child is not a student in the system

We do our best to ensure any data entered is as accurate as possible, but sometimes a students data file is missing a critical piece, addresses are inaccurate, phone numbers are outdated, info is different than it was meant to be, changed from when it was originally entered, not marked correctly, reversed, or something as simple as a mere typo.

What happens to my portal account when my child leaves elementary school for middle school or transfers to another Leon district school?

Focus Parent Portal accounts roll over from year to year, so when your child moves from elementary to middle to high school, you do not have to create a new account.

I try to login, but my child, or the wrong child is automatically logged in on our home computer

There are multiple ways to resolve this issue depending on how or what you are willing to do.
