I see red flags too.. 2e kids (at least mine) don't handle pressure well, and all that description did for me was scream PROVE YOU DESERVE THIS SCHOOL by your previous high achievement.. which my kids would flat out refuse to perform for, especially in areas where they struggle.
If he loves what he's interested in, you may just have to get him through school as best you can and get him outside courses/electives in the things he loves. Or if you can find a school that uses project based learning where he can choose the project in an area that he is interested in that might work better… it's interesting how motivated the unmotivated learner can be when s/he is working on subjects that interest them…
However that is just a description, so I would try to talk to parents with kids there to give you the real picture.
