What if School Daze was the first episode of MLP: FiM and the student 6 were our mane 6?

That would be a horrible mistake of the show to do that.

The idea of a school being part of the first season would leave a bad taste in my mouth. I hate watching shows about school, so I would have likely turned away from FiM if that was the case. The Student Six aren't bad, I actually like some of them, but they aren't my favorite, so I would not get attached to them and would likely not miss them if I turned away from FiM.
