I work at a school and will be issued a new computer next year. How do I make a back-up of my bookmarks, add-on's, etc.?

The user data is stored in the profile folder. You can backup the data manually by copying the contents of the profile folder, for details see Profile backup - MozillaZine Knowledge Base or Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles.

There are some add-ons and utilities that can make this process easier. The first one is the FEBE add-on which can be used to backup a profile. Another option is the free MozBackup utility.
