I want to use IRC/SSH at school but both seems to be blocked. I assume they blocked all ports outside of 80 and 8080. Is there anyway to get around this? Maybe a proxy? How would I set this up?

Wireguard to home. If they block that then try tailscale it should work

That implies that their organization allows adding net devices without authorization. If irc is blocked, modifying the network more than likely is too

+1 on this. Easiest way to get around school filters - used to have this setup when I was in high school (well, OpenVPN, but same thing just different VPN tech).
