Focus or Schoology?

A simple way to remember the difference:

F
Focus = Report Cards Use Focus when you need your child's official report card.
S
Schoology = Gradebook Use Schoology to check current grades and assignments.
⭐ Important: The Grades tab in Focus is not the BCPS gradebook. BCPS uses Schoology for its gradebook.
