Actually, most of the heavy lifting will need to be done with squid's ad-authenticator. There are a number of howto's for doing this online, but I'm afraid I don't have one handy right now. Get squid authenticating to your AD system, then you simply need to configure squidguard to filter based on those groups. In a hypothetical example, if you have AD groups for Students, Teachers, Administrators and IT staff, you would want to ensure that everyone is contacting squid on the authenticated port, not being transparently proxied through squid. The browser would then send the AD credentials to squid upon connection and squid would confirm the credentials against your AD server. Then all HTTP requests would be passed to squidguard as coming from someone within say the Students group and would be filtered according to your squidGuard ACLs for that group. Disclaimer: All of this works with off-the-shelf squid+squidguard, I do not know how much of this can be done specifically with the squid+squidguard package in pfSense. Most of the GUI stuff is there, but I don't know how much of the underlying code is there or works. This would be an excellent bounty project for some people to embark upon since URL filtering seems to be something that everyone and their second cousin wants to see in the pfSense squid package.

Do you happen to have a config that I can look at to do this or should
I start looking at Squidguard's page?

Its possible to do with Squid and SquidGuard, and while some of the widgets
exist in the package GUI, I don't think they actually do anything.

Is there a way that I am just not seeing to authenticate users based
on their AD group (Users, Admins, Executives, etc) with Squid or
Squidguard.  I would need to apply different policies to each group.
