For D3 summer after Junior year. For D1 it's better to get on their radar earlier, if possible.
If your son is a position player try to get to one of the Ivy camps summer and fall of his incoming Junior year (if he's interested and capable of playing Ivy). Two days with all the coaches seeing skills and game actions. Then go to the fall Junior year HF, Showball, or AZ Fall Classic, the Ivy coaches attending will have all ready seen you and actually know you. Helpful for position players.
Concur with JCG if looking at D3's. If D3 academics are of interest initiate emails with them spring HS junior year...albeit a bit early, but they'll start getting to know you, and they'll seek you out when they see you at the June HF camps.
