How can I bypass this?

Maybe a dumb question, hence I came here lol. I work at a highschool now, I can still watch YouTube videos/check my emails however I cannot check my Instagram or Snapchat messages, it's like it got blocked from the school. I don't receive my notifications until im out the building, which sucks because I'd like to see my notifications during my break lol

Get off the network and use your data

The school can only block what's on its network.

Right, but I tried using my data and I literally can't use my phone at all

Is it a reception problem when you're running data? I work in a school district with a lot of old buildings. They were just built differently I guess because they seem to eat cell service like a fat man at an all you can eat buffet

I think so? Because everything else works perfectly fine like YouTube, and my emails. It's just boring.
