I know this arguement has been used in the past, but don't those kids need FIRST and be surrounded and influenced by postive role models the most?

I think some responsiblity has to be placed on the students who have to attempt to discourge rule breaking. Parents and mentors can influence those troubled students, but in the end the person's peers influence them the most. Instead of taping doors or not taking potentially troubled students, the students need to create a culture where breaking the rules is looked down upon and not tolerated.
