What education does a lawyer need?

class project, need to know lawyers education to get a lawyer position.

You need a four year batchelor's degree, a three year Juris Doctorate degree and then you need to pass a state (or federal) bar exam.

There used to be an avenue by which you could clerk in a law office for a number of years but the last state in the union did away with it several years ago.

Go to prison for like two years, to be a really good lawyer stay in prison for four years

In the United States, generally, an attorney must have a four-year baccalaureate degree, and a three-year juris doctor degree. There are some exceptions available in some of the State jurisdictions (permitting less education at one or both of these levels), but these are tremendously rare. So for all intents and purposes, seven years past high school graduation are required.
