If you could snap your fingers and change school to be the most amazing place in the world, what would it be like? Give details and explain. :)

If I could change school to be the most amazing place in the world, I would have high school last for 8+ years, and there wouldn't be any colleges. There would be numerous choices of classes and courses that helps students, from early on, to get into the subjects they're interested in and possibly major in. Students would attend school in the same school they started 7th grade in. This would be a much more amazing school, because students out of high school would not have to pay an extraordinary large sum of money to apply/attend college. Everyone would recycle/reuse books every year, and students don't have the stress of attending a prestigious college versus a smaller college or a community college. I think instead of many different colleges or schools in each district, there should be one giant school in each city or so, with dorms for students who live too far away. Another way the schools could be more amazing would be if school days weren't only from 8am to 2:37pm, but there would be hundreds of classes throughout the day and night, so students who need to work or want to take more or less classes could arrange a workable schedule to their liking.
Schools would be more amazing if they offered many different varieties of classes the students could take.
Schools would be amazing if there was a well-regulated zero tolerance policy for cheating and copying. Too many students cheat and get away with it these days.
Another change would be if teachers wre paid more, because they're in charge of the future of society by teaching students and young children literature, new ways of thinking, how to figure problems out by ourselves, etc.
The last way I could think of to change schools for the better is if the dress code was a little more strict, or if it was actually enforced.
