Why not just restrict the network settings in the system preferences?

I will leave the technical answer to others. However, I will comment about the behavior. Obviously these are shared devices, and therefore I assume each user has their own account. Upon a computer's failure, it should be possible to view the usage log and offer respective discipline to the student(s) responsible.

@RobertBasil How should I go about doing this?

@Ricky

If you're asking how to enable/check those options, it has been posted on threads here before. Here is one recent one I posted to on how to do this: link

@Ricky two quick things:

1. If you use @RobertBasil method,don't forget your scoping and exclusions
2. I personally prefer and use the method Mike(@mm2270) linked to as part of a first boot script and because sometimes profiles can get a little wonky

@Ricky I was scrolling through JAMF Nation a few days ago and came across with wonderful script by @delbrown (thank you so much) to kick a computer back to the correct wireless when it is nearby. I have found it very handy and I am going to set it up so it runs at a network state change.
