Basically, I suck at computers, and would like to FTP into my website because it needs some updating. However, problem is that I only have internet access at school where I have to run everything through their proxy. I'm sure there's a way to do this. I've been messing around with the proxy settings in FileZilla but no luck. Some basic information about the school network here (http://www.waseda.jp/itc/e/network/general-proxy.html).

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Just a suggestion: FTP is really insecure (nonencrypted) as it is. So running your FTP through a proxy is essentially giving someone else free login info to your server.

At minimum, you should consider using FTP over TLS, or SSH/SFTP if possible, assuming your website host supports it.
