Enrolling him in the lowest or second level level remedial English class at your local community college would be roughly middle school material. You can often find those classes online.

Yup. While it's not his fault, he's behind.
I'm noticing one word you don't mention at all in your explanation. Superintendent. Is there no district Supt.? Normally, public school boards not only don't take an active role in school personnel issues (except for hirings and firings based on principal/supt. recommendations), they specifically don't, in my experience, appreciate being complained to. Failing to receive satisfactory attention from the principal, the next appropriate place to complain is the super, not the board.

Whoever it was that asked why there were so many substitutes has clearly never substituted for a 7th or 8th grade class.
