FOCUS Parent Portal

Welcome to the FOCUS Parent Portal for the School District of Manatee County.

The FOCUS Parent Portal is a tool designed to enhance communication and involvement in your child's education while they are enrolled in a Manatee County public school. A FOCUS account will allow you to register your child for public school online and apply for School Choice during open enrollment session. FOCUS can help you monitor your child's progress in school by providing timely access to assignments and grades as they are entered by the teacher throughout the school year.

For the best user experience with the FOCUS Parent Portal, please use the Google Chrome browser.

For Students currently enrolled in an SDMC school. To create a FOCUS account, you must have a valid email address. If you are unable to create a FOCUS account, please contact your child's school for assistance.

For Parents that have a FOCUS account and want to add a child who is already enrolled in an SDMC school.
