I’ll say it because no one else has: it’s not wise to discuss individual teachers in an open forum. The music world is very small and it seems that everyone is constantly running into each other so it’s always best to keep specific opinions private.
And a teacher might be great for one student but not work at all well for another- there are so many factors that come into play. Piano is extremely competative so it would be good for your son to being taking sample lessons now. If he could visit schools while classes are in session, he could observe others’ lessons or studio classes.
As compmom mentioned, there are many kinds of schools to consider and several types of degrees within those. For instance, CIM has a 5 yr dual degree program with Case Western or the student can get a BA in Music through Case as a double major, secondary major or another full degree.
