OCSD FOCUS Educational Portal 4+

It conveys the BARE minimum information for my grade after an complicated sign in process and a terrible, hard to navigate UI. Doesn’t provide any visible benefits over the original parent portal(doesn’t even provide GPA). Whoever made this change needs to be fired or tarred and feathered, and same for whoever designed it.

too much extra information without important things like gpa, and if it is on there it’s very difficult to find. some things to find them require you to go into one main section then a subsection then another subsection, it’s just overly complex for no reason.

one thing about parent portal was virtual report cards, and while we haven’t reached the end of a quarter i don’t think it’ll be the same. i liked that with paws you could open the pdf and see your grade average, generic comments, issues, concerns, etc, with a key corresponding to those. i also liked being able to see test scores and what not through it’s dedicated section, now i can’t seem to find anywhere that i can find that.

overall, bad navigation and not enough important information. parent portal was a lot easier to navigate and that made it easy to find what you need.

It's very other app unfriendly, it's very hard to navigate and has all this extra non important information when in reality students like me need to find things like gpa without it being super complicated
