I have wondered what happens to kids in this situation.
My daughter's former best friend, who if she had stayed on the right track would have no doubt, been one of the top ten in the class, messed up a lot in the last couple of years.
She went form being inducted to NHS as a junior to a sort of drop out-self teaching combo. Do not understand how this happened,but when she has talked to my daughter , said she is taking a year off and maybe go somewhere next year.
To me, that translates to not even going to try to go to a local community college and I worry that without being in high school, she will lose the resources that she will need to get her foot in the door anywhere.
Not to suggest that this is the same issue with the OP's son.
In all honestly, my older daughter only applied to one school too. She was going to apply to others RD, but she got accepted to her first choice.
It was a crapshoot that she won.
