to be honest arena or swiss doesn't matter and you should ask your students what they want

I have a 20 student chess club at a high school in SF. Most kids don't play much chess, but know the rules. I want to host a tournament on my Chess.com club. What type of tournament should I host if I want to have a fun hour-long first chess tournament for my school?
Should I do arena or Swiss? How many rounds? How long should the games be?
Thanks!
