He should be able to log in with his school email and password. The school won't get control over the Chromebook but everything he does under that account will still likely be monitored, I'm not sure how that part works but my nieces and nephew have used their personal Chromebooks with their school account before when their crappy school ones were acting up.
Yeah, we understand his school account will be monitored, but is it only the account? Would his personal account still be ok to use if he uses his school account on the same device?
His personal account should be untouched, as someone else mentioned it is done by user, not device. The only thing I would worry about is the possibility of the district blocking personal devices in the future. I’ve never actually bothered to look if it is a setting in Google admin.
The overall scenario is something I’ve done personally. I provided my nephews with Chromebook’s and they are able to switch between accounts. The district has a log of the device but nothing of any real use beyond that.
