In order for student activity data to be actionable, it should be accessible to the right people, including teachers, counselors, parents, etc. The school admin, therefore, has the ability to create faculty groups to delegate the monitoring of activity and allow users access to student activity reports and email alerts.
Only a Securly admin has the authority to create, edit, and delete Faculty Groups. Faculty groups can not currently be cloned or renamed.

Navigate to Users > Faculty groups.

Click on 'Create faculty Group'.
