Too bad the clubs don't have at least one adult leader
Agreed. Many high schools have a teacher as an advisor for each club or extra curricular... and a list of parents who help the teacher by performing tasks the teacher may delegate to them. For some clubs/extracurriculars, kids learn "Roberts Rules of Order" for conducting their meetings. Having a club/extracurricular without some type of guidance is similar to having gifted kids work on their own without instruction, sending them back to their desks to figure it out for themselves!
