1. Allow students to fill out a form before joining a community like Facebook groups. Administrators can build each form by themselves using Form Builder which includes all current input types and some others like the following:
Upload files like student school ID and so on
The built-in list of all countries, cities of each country, languages, etc
2. Add different types of community members like the following:
Channel Managers have the following rights:
* Remove inappropriate posts
* Filter out posts in another channel
* Publish announcements in their managed channels
* Pin a post to the top of the channel
Community Managers cannot only have all the rights of Channel Managers but can also have the following rights:
* Add/invite a member to the community
* Remove a member from the community
* Move wrong posts filtered out by channel managers from one channel to another channel
* Publish announcements on all channels
3. Allow administrators to add some other widgets to the left and right sidebar of the community page. These widgets can be the following:
Relative communities which allow administrators to specify the relative communities of each community.
Members of the community or one channel
Announcement
Upcoming events/live streams
Most replied posts
Most activated users
Most awarded users
4. Add a selection option beside the search bar in each community to allow users to search either from all channels or one channel so that a user does not need to search from all channels by clicking on each channel one by one. If a user does not purchase a channel, that channel will not be shown in the selection menu.
5. Allow each member of the community to do the following:
Post questions with coins to reward peers who answer their questions
Report inappropriate posts including violent, rude, racist, or sexually explicit content to the channel/community managers.

I would like to add here that it would be great if students automatically follow the General channel like teachers and admins do. Not everyone realizes to go and follow channels and then they miss posts and notifications. They can always unfollow if they don't want it but it would be better if they automatically follow it from the start.
