Dana PriebeKeep it simple and give your students lots of opportunities to explore and go off the beaten path. I'd have a list of 3-4 encounters that aren't part of the main plot that can be used if they do something unexpected. I'm guessing that they'll absolutely love derailing whatever plot you come up with.
KeroZelvin@carmel What about a crypt with a fairly easy puzzle to get open and then nothing inside but a big chest of treasure that turns out to be a mimic! That would be quick and might surprise students not yet familiar with the mimic trope.
His Most Ferocious Majesty@carmel How hard is the #5e constraint and would they be able to come back for a second or third game? I have a "default recommendation" that I've used a few times for short games, but it's not #5e at all and there's a lot more to explore than what fits into an hour. But it's concise, four pages and a map, totally free, and (in my opinion) excellent. And who doesn't want to rescue kids from an ogre? https://download.immersiveink.com/DDSupplements/Secrets_of_the_Old_City_Cover.pdf https://download.immersiveink.com/DDSupplements/Secrets_of_the_Old_City.pdf
