Ania,
I'm so sorry to hear about this - and you did have every reason to think that your son was reasonably accomidated - sigh -
Remind me again (sorry) what kinds of accomidations and extracurriculars your son is doing right now.
You could have him read Karen Rodger's book about Re-forming Gifted Ed. for ideas - or - have him read Elizabeth Wissner-Gross's What High Schools Don't Tell You

http://educationalstrategy.org/My DS12 read the Wissner-Gross book and got very encouraged.
I agree that at this point it's your job to help brain storm possible changes and coach your son to go after them. My hunch is that there is a good chance that during school hours things are about as good as they are going to get, and that a really inspiring afterschool activity/career path might help him cope.
There is always homeschooling, such as EPGY online highschool.
What ever he tries, the fact that you and he have looked critically at the problem, made a plan, tried it out, and monitored the results is a great learning experience in itself. Being miserable is a wondreful thing if it makes you toss caution to the wind and think big. Go DS!
Love and More Love,
Grinity
