Does Tor track browsing history?
The Tor Browser hides your IP address and browsing activity by redirecting web traffic through a series of different routers known as nodes. Because Tor hides browsing activity and blocks tracking, it's used by whistleblowers, journalists, and others who want to protect their privacy online.
Can WIFI owner see Tor Browser history?

Yes. As soon as you attach to the WiFi your device is assigned an IP address so interenet stuff can be directed to you as you request it. The data flow can be monitored or restricted depending on the network administrator.

Your college would be able to know that you used Tor and can fairly easily block Tor if they wanted to. But what data goes through the Tor network is most likely out of bound for them.
How are Tor users tracked?
So while the Tor Project doesn't receive your IP address, they have requested IP address tracking at some nodes. These nodes convert addresses to countries and then upload the country information to the Tor Project. In order to do this, the nodes must collect information about you -- that's tracking.
Can teachers see your search history on your school account?
The simple answer is YES! Everything you do on the laptop is stored. Even if you use incognito. In addition, if you are using the school's WiFi, everything you do (regardless of whether it is your device or the district's) could be monitored.
Can my school see my internet history at home?
In short: Don't worry about your school spying on you. Especially not if you're not using their network from home. They can still track what you do on their servers though, or if you visit their server by clicking a link, your browser might send a referrer url, which could be used to show the previous page.
Can the FBI see Tor?

Can schools track private browsers?
School or company networks: If you use a network run by your school or employer, they can see your browsing history even if you're in incognito mode. Websites you log into: When you're in incognito mode and log into a website like Twitter, you won't be anonymous. The site can also share your data with other websites.
Can you get flagged for using Tor?
Tor is perfectly legal in most Western countries. It only becomes illegal when you use it to access sites to trade in illegal materials. Though, you can still get flagged for dodgy activity if someone like your ISP spots you using it.
Is Tor monitored by government?
Tor was started by US Naval Research Laboratory and later open sourced. It was started to allow citizens in oppressive regimes like Iran and China to browse censored content. This explains the backing of US. However, it is now run by a non-profit organization with funding from the US government.
