When want a pure software solution you can try to make your home network look like your school net. First of all: is your school configuration with static ip-adresses or with dhcp / dynamic adresses and DNS entries. if its completely dynamic (all settings are dynamic including dns): Set up a dhcp server on your linux box and it should work. If not this should work: If your school uses private IP Adresses (192.168.*, 10.*, ...) use the same one for your home network. Give the linux machine the address of the school's dns server.
