There have been multiple threads on the subject, and yes it is possible to use it over a large network but I wouldn't recommend it.
The method I use to stream when I am on my home wireless network is to use a program like Resco Explorer or Net Use to map a networked directory full of MP3's on my Axim (shared from a PC of course) and then access them directly with your music player of choice. This has the benefit of allowing you to easily choose what's playing immediately.
Another method is to stream via the Windows Media Encoder, however you'll have to use another program if you want control over the playlist from your Axim.
For the school network, you're gonna half to poke a whole in your personal network's firewall to be able to access it. The best method would be to tunnel in via VPN, however there are multiple other options. If you don't have a static IP, check out dyndns.org for some solutions. You're quality will be greatly affected by your upload rate, so YMMV.
Like I said earlier, a search of this site ought to get you enough info to get started.
