securing wireless usb devices

I manage the computers for a small charter high school. We have a wireless network, and some of the usb adapters are being stolen. Any ideas on how to secure these devices? The only solution I have come up with so far is to take them all off the computers and make the kids check them out.

The other thing they are doing is unplugging them from the computer, and since there are 6 usb ports on these computers, they are getting plugged back into the wrong port, and then they don't work. Are there any usb port covers available somewhere?

thank you.

Very low tech, but how about a hot glue gun as used to hold IDE
connectors in to mainboards
