I would like him to join an incoming class if possible.

In Fairfax County 7th is middle school for public schools, and therefore an expansion/start year for some private schools.

For fall 2025? No one is going to have space. Admission decisions went out on Friday for many schools in the area. Maaaaaaaybe you get lucky and a lower-tier school will put you on the waitlist.

In that case, just start looking at schools. Applications will open next August/September, and most if not all expand for 7th.

Maybe wait a couple weeks and repost asking “which schools consider 7th an expansion year?”. For more specific info, add if single-gender or co-ed, or certain area (people here will go pretty far for schools). Right now is a busy time for admissions related posts and you may get lost in the shuffle.

OP, you’ve basically just said “I need a school.” More detail would be helpful if you want actual suggestions. 7th is an expansion at the majority of k-12 schools so that’s not really narrowing it down.

Where are you located? DC, MD, VA? Open to or prefer all-boys, or prefer coed? Preference about religious affiliation - Catholic, Episcopal? Academic or extra curricular interests or strengths?
