Managing Monitor Groups

Prev Next

Once you have created a monitor group, you might need to make changes, such as updating the name of the group, adding or removing students, or deleting the group if it is no longer needed. This article goes over some common actions that you might take to effectively manage your monitor groups.

Viewing Existing Groups

To view any existing groups, select Monitor Groups. You will see personal groups and campus and district groups if you have access to at least one of the students in the group.
