Child get rejected from ED dream school now what

So my kid got rejected from ED. We knew there was a risk, but the rejection really stings as opposed to being deferred. I honestly don't know how to look him in the eye. He did everything we asked and sacrificed weekends, nights and summers. All the while we were saying the hard work will pay off just hang in there. Given what we are seeing I really don't think he has a shot at a top 20 school as part of RD. I have no idea on what they saw wrong in his application. Straight A's. Low 1500s SAT. President on multiple ECs. Summer Internships. Significant leadership in community work.

I really just need advice on how to deal with my kid. If I was him I wouldn't listen to a single thing I ask him to do going forward. Why would he?
