Know your school handbook and acceptable use policy inside and out. Same with any other published guidelines they provide. My bet is that their AUP says something about not circumventing their security and monitoring tools. Booting into a live OS would certainly fall into that category. But knowing what the rules actually say is probably the first thing you should do since you don't own the hardware or network. From there, you can decide how far you really want to go and if there are any defenses or loopholes in the rules.
Getting your own hardware is probably your best option in this case if you can do so.
