All of the adults in the world came dowm with some kind of virus, plague, whatever, and killed all the adults and left the children to live and fend for them selves.
In one part of the book, some of the kids, barridaced the school up and had to defend themselves.
That is all I can remember of the story.

"The Girl Who Owned a City" by OT Nelson
http://www.amazon.com/Girl-Owned-Young-Adult-Ficti...
"A killing virus has swept the earth, sparing only children through the age of twelve. There is chaos everywhere, even in formely prosperous mid-America. Gangs and fierce armies of children begin to form almost immediately. It would be the same for the children on Grand Avenue but for Lisa, a yen-year-old girl who becomes their leader. Because of Lisa, they have food, even toys, in abundance. And now they can protect themselves from the fierce gangs that roam the neighborhoods. But for how long? Then Lisa conceives the idea of a fortress, a city in which the children could live safely and happily always, and she intends to lead them there"
