I got a school macbook air and the teachers claim they have the power to see what I do on it. Is this true and how would I protect myself from it?

There are numerous ways they can track usage. I'm sure there are clauses in the agreement you made with them about attempting to circumvent them, so I would just not do anything stupid while using it.

Do you think a using a proxy and vpn while on their network will stop this?

And what if I have blocked all connections inbound on my firewall?

Like I said, it can probably be done, but I'm sure that somehow you agreed not to do such things when they gave you the laptop. I would bet that if you did, they would have the right to take the laptop back.

Your Proxy is how they track you. And your communication with the router is all they need
