I will be creating a network soon that will be using arch for the server. The network will consist of the Server, a Switch, and 3 or 4 thin-clients.
My question is: What to I do when configuring my server's network aspects of the OS? Like in the rc.conf, resolv.conf, /etc/hosts? It will be the DHCP server for the network (so no router with dhcp), so do I need to configure the system like I have a static IP?

Yes. As a general rule, servers of any sort are configured with a static address.

So I can choose any static IP I want right? I've only used dhcp before so I'm new to static ips.

You can choose any IP that's in your network block and isn't in use by another machine.
