Today, my son was smart enough to hack the school's computers to change his midterm, but isn't smart enough to actually keep his grades up. FML

You might want to look into private school or advanced placement classes, or something along those lines. I'm sure this sounds presumptuous, and I'm sorry for that in advance, but it sounds like his current school situation isn't challenging him enough.

I tend to agree with #1 on this one. I've known a lot of genius kids in my life. Most of them got horrible grades despite being smarter than anyone around them. A gifted program may be helpful in challenging your child and motivating them to do better.

Speaking from experience, I found almost all the assignments horribly dull and had many other far more important things to split my time between, so I almost never did homework and instead aced the tests and final exams, maintaining C's and D's in most classes. And I was working part time catering and got paid editing people's assignments instead so I feel his pain of having to be surrounded by mediocrity.
