Not all VPNs can be blocked. Just gotta find the ones that aren't.

The protocols are what are likely blocked, or at least their specific ports which they operate on. (L2TP, PPTP, etc)
There are a few ways to get around the firewalls, depending on what methods they are using for security. Common evasions could be using a platform such as TeamViewer to remotely connect to a computer at home or using web engines where the web content is rendered at another website (check out https://www.filterbypass.me/).

Squid proxy woo. Or ssh tunnel woo.

Squid proxy wouldn't really be applicable here as it is designed for caching and filtering, and an ssh tunnel may work but would only provide ssh-grade access. SSH is generally used to provide bash access, yet he'd need something to at the very least cache web content then forward it to his client. Am I misunderstanding the purpose of either of these?
Honestly, I'd suggest just using your data and tether it to your computer via a hotspot or similar. If it's necessary for something at school, you can always contact the network admin or publish a ticket to have the website unblocked, or if it's not appropriate to request, it's likely not appropriate to evade security protocols just to reach. Just use a hotspot / your own data, don't hijack your school's.
