I got an MSI Thin A15 "gaming" laptop. I specifically went with this one as it seemed to be the best at that price point and had a dedicated graphics card.

Although it's a "gaming" laptop, I fully intend on rocking this to school. I'll turn off the RGB keyboard, and maybe tape an apple logo over the main one (although it's not RGB and fairly discreet) or something. It's got a metal case and full size HDMI out + ethernet, so I don't see why you couldn't rock it to school. Then again I have a friend whose school only permits MacBooks, even though they aren't school provided or managed. So I guess YMMV
