Hosting a site in LAN?

In my school computer lab there is a LAN with 25 computers which the students and teachers are using. The server is using windows 2000 server OS. This lab is also connected to the internet using ADSL which uses a proxy server (in the same office). The proxy is using LINUX OS (Nautilus 2.12.2). I have developed a web site for the school in which the forms, announcements, staff training presentations are included. I want to available it in the LAN so that the teachers and students who are loging on to the LAN can access it. How can i do it? Where should i keep the folder? What are the setting?
