You can create groups of students. Groups are used to easily filter lists and reports, create assignments for select students, and more. Students cannot see the groups in which they've been placed.

noteNote: Educators with Administrator access can create, delete or edit any groups. Educators with User or Limited access can edit and delete their own groups. To learn more about educator access and permissions, check out Educator permissions.
