Efforts to remove restrictions and access blocked sites may be logged. Some school systems view this as vandalism and you could be suspended, expelled or arrested for your actions.

Just because you gain access to a restricted site does not mean you are in the clear. If the admins block and log Internet activity, they might log every bit and byte you send and receive and then punish you for circumventing their shabby security.
