Does "officer of a club" translate directly?
In America, most school clubs are student run and typically the students who run the club are called officers. Is this also the case in Germany or is there a different word to say what I mean? like is it understandable for me to say "Ich bin sozial Offizer von mein Deutschverein." or something like that? (this is true, despite my being terrible at German)
Are clubs more or less the same in Germany or are there any major differences?

No, Offizier is a purely military term. When you are the head of a club, you would say "Ich leite den Club..." But then the whole system over here is different. In school we have only the regular subjects and additionally so called "Arbeitsgemeinschaften", short AGs. There is no obligation to join any and they are run by teachers most of the time.
