Transferring schools over the summer

I have a 10th grader at boarding school who is adamant about coming home. The school is going through some transitions and it no longer seems like the best place for her. She is a straight A student, does several extracurriculars, has no sports, and is a very talented musician. Her PSAT scores were mixed: perfect in English, top quartile in math.

Does anyone know if any Boston schools would be willing to consider a summer application? I’m looking at the list of all the schools around here, and they’re all either super competitive, or very small. It doesn’t seem like any would have much in the way of extra space. She does seem to have very good stats though, except for the math PSAT. Which was odd, because she is very good at math.

Would a good high school consultant be able to talk her way in somewhere?

I’m really at a loss and wish the issues at her current school had manifested 6 months ago.
