Though it has been awhile this link should get you headed in the right
direction.

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CustomizeGuestSession

There is plenty of info out there to fully customize and restrict users.
My toughest was computer systems in a half-way house.  Half a dozen
programs for job searching and locking down surfing to trusted only sites
with a dns filter from OpenDNS.  Just so you know it can be done and the
information is out there.

Also, if you set UID to < 1000 it will not appear in the available login
list.  I used this to hide my admin accounts on client systems.  Use
"Other..." option to login into the hidden accounts.  Students would only
ever see "Guest"
