For high school level, you don't necessarily exploit all the features in a Macbook Air or Macbook Pro would use.

An ipad with a keyboard would do the trick.

I disagree, I tried using an iPad with a keyboard for school and while it was alright using a MacBook became so much better, I had wayy less limitations and it was a lot more usable day to day. Maybe it will suit them more but I also had a number of issues with school software support on iPad vs Mac
