I decided to try the IT field. I will have to start at a junior college and go for a AAS degree, first. I'm not good at math and mainly going to be on the network side; database/network admin.
I was wondering if you guys have opinions on where to start school.

Math isn't really a requirement for admin work so I wouldn't worry about that. Make sure that you really enjoy technology. The field involves long hours and then you go home to read books afterward. The pay sounds good until you figure it out by the hour. lol.

If you want a 2 year degree then go to a real school that allows the credits to be transferred, pretty much any community or technical college. Do your research on this, you'll thank me later.
Not much IT work requires the use of math except some programming, and networking when you start dealing with things like subnets.
As mlomker said you REALLY need to enjoy technology. If you aren't the type who regularly follows technology news and trends and don't enjoy playing with computers in your spare time then you are not going to like doing this as your career.
