Have you considered hiring an advocate?
It doesn't sound like your child's school is that motivated to do anything. Advocates seem to be able to get the school to at least acknowledge the problem and move forward.
Edited to Add: Just saw that funding may make an advocate hard. In that case, can you read through websites that have legal details on advocacy so you can try to do it yourself.
Also, I think in our school district if the parent requests an IEP, then the school is forced to do testing and figure out if there is a need. This can also start the ball rolling. If he is HFA, then maybe that could be your reason for requesting the IEP. In the IEPs in our district some include gifted opportunities.
I wish that the school was better set up just to meet kids where they are instead of having to do all this IEP/504 work. But, alas it is not.
