Server 2003: Controlling Clients
I have a small domain in a K-8 school with 85+/- clients. It is becoming necessary to control what the students can do on their workstation...especially their ability to set/change wallpaper etc. This ability was removed a few weeks ago by a now departed person, but I need to activate it so that I can remove some unacceptable backgrounds that went unnoticed for awhile. Where do I find the controls for such an endeavor?

You can do a lot of stuff using Group Policies. Look into using it since it is available on your server as a tool already. You can keep them out of everything in the Control Panel as well as tons of other stuff they should never be in to. Microsoft also offers some pretty good templates for locking stuff down.
