Per IRS: Expenses paid to attend a private high school don't qualify for an education credit because a high school isn't an eligible educational institution.
If you are asking about the $500 Credit for Other Dependents, the credit allows taxpayers a credit for certain dependents that don't qualify for the Child Tax Credit, such as qualifying children age 17 or older, adult dependents, and dependents who have an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN).
To be eligible for this credit, your son must fit the definition of a qualifying child or a qualifying relative, as defined here:
Qualifying child
Qualifying relative
