They are rarely actively monitored, but when they are, SSH will 100% look suspicious, and this individual already has a flag on them for tor, so yes they go beyond MAC and can identify them. You haven’t even asked what kind of school it is, how they access school content when on the network that could identify their machine, or what the risks are for getting caught, yet you want to push a method when others have provided better8 options for obscurity.
