+1. If you have enough money, anything is possible. The devil is in the details though.

You never know till you call. I’ve heard of some very good schools having random openings in the summer.

That is such a totally useless comment.
OPs question is generic and vague. Of course there are private schools that accept kids out of cycle. Ask a vague question, get a vague response. Seems reasonable to me.

Are you going to pay both tuitions?

Sycamore is the same, with rolling admissions for grades 5-11 (they don't take rising seniors).

Yes but you’d have to take what spots are available and you will almost certainly be on the hook for tuition at your previous school.

It’s possible, sure. It will depend entirely on whether a school has a spot in a given grade (or if your kid and/or your story of why you’re switching is very compelling). Just start reaching out. Expect longer response times, though. Admin take vacation too.

Yes if you're willing to take what you can get.
