My DS has been a scholastic under-achiever for the past 5 years (he's a Junior this year). Since 6th grade, we've had countless calls and meetings with teachers, guidance counselors and principals. We even had him going to counseling for a while and he told his counselor that he wanted to get by with the least amount of effort possible. 
She said sometimes it takes a failure to learn a lesson.
When he gets his report card, he "forgets" to tell us until we learn that his cousin (in the same school) already got his.
But.... yesterday he came home and gave me his report card and he was HIGH HONOR ROLL! I almost passed out. We're so happy and proud of him. Maybe my boy is finally growing up.
DD also came home with a High Honor Roll report card, but that's usual for her. We're still proud of her, but it was a bigger accomplishment for her brother. Her goal is to have Distinguished Honor Roll.
-----------------
There are 3 different types of Honor Roll in our school district:
Honor Roll - A's and B's (one C is allowed).
High Honor Roll - A's and B's, but must have A's in at least 2 major subjects.
Distinguished Honor Roll - Straight A's.
