Bluestacks is an Android emulator, basically he's using the software to simultaneously play Roblox across 6 different accounts as if he had 6 different phones.

That's probably an overkill system for school work, and Roblox should run natively too. As for running Roblox through Bluestacks, that's more specialized and not something I'm sure anyone here would be familiar with (though I'm open to being surprised).

I think he's using "need" very generously, does he currently have a system that is capable of doing this? It sounds like he might already, so why does the laptop also need to do this?

A chromebook may be more than adequate unless the school has specific recommendations, which may be worth inquiring about with the school; they may also be able to organize a deal for a suitable device.

Otherwise if you provide a budget I'm sure plenty of us will be happy to point out potential options for you.
