I really cannot address your concern from a students point of view (I did not practice in High School) but I can tell you as a Band Director and Private Teacher, I have a few students like you. Other kids will always give you a hard time if you break from the "do just enough to get by" norm. You and my star students are special, you are driven to do more. But consider this: do you pick on the math nerds who do all of the problems when only the odd numbers are assigned... do you talk about the kid who turns in the report three weeks before it is due... do you laugh at the one who hangs around the computer lab to see the networks administrator install new memory? These are kids like you, but in different areas. Do what you need to do and do not worry about the "big fat gooey glob of stupid people".
