- Also Winter and Summer lacrosse
Platoons - 9-12 - 10 hours a week - a weightlifting program with the football team
Spanish Club - 9-11 - wildly varying time, mean about 2 hours per week, various volunteering and cultural activities
Volunteering at an English as a Second Laguage center in Detroit approx. 50 hours
NHS - 12 - as that is the only year it is offered</p>
<p>Lack of leadership activities or useless clubs is connected to the fact that most clubs conflict with football and/or require class membership to be a part of them(DECA, Debate, Spanish Club, etc.) and leadership positions are reserved for seniors in almost all clubs with size of school. And I find the student government and the like to be a complete joke at my school, reducing my motivation to get involved.</p>
