haha yes if you're running it off a residential internet connection, likely port 80 will be blocked.
But if youre having a static business connection or having your server located at a datacentre, you are provided an unrestricted connection and usually bandwidth which goes in megabits, a guranteed continuous source of power and some remote management resources (I have remote power control for mine).
If your school has its own website, perhaps they may allow to dedicate you some space, a subdomain or allow you to have your own domain name. That'll depend on your school so you may want to talk to them on that.
