Is there a way to set a Windows Group Policy to prevent browser deletion?

I work at a school and I'd like to know if there are any ways to prevent browser history deletion within Firefox (potentially with Windows Group Policies). Within Chrome there is this fantastic flag/policy "AllowDeletingBrowserHistory" which works perfectly to prevent users from removing their history within the app. I know the policy settings are new for Firefox and they've added a lot of them, but am I missing one that would have a similar functionality? As we are a K-12 school we like to have our browsers locked down as possible and we love this feature with Chrome and we were wondering what we could do with Firefox. We had a way to do this before but it has not been supported for 2-3 years so we don't know how to proceed.
