With respect to time efficiency and the capability of your fleet, i'll compile a list of stuff u could do below. Of course it's not possible to do all of this in the time frame, but try doing most of the bolded recommendations.

Ships: Equipment:
 * DD - The list of DD's you've chosen is good, consider Kai Ni'ing Hibiki and Akatsuki, since their levels are close to the remodel lvl requirement. If you have enough time, consider getting Ayanami, Kasumi or Asashio to K2, thought this may require a bit of lvl grinding.  Prioritise Ayanami in terms of levelling -' 'since she has versatility in Night DA and CI (high luck stat).
 * CL - Usually in an event you need around 2-3 ish CL's battle ready. Try to get Abukuma to Kai Ni as soon as possible, for Minisub and Daihatsu carrying abilitiy. Get Sendai to K2 for Night battle equipment and get Isuzu for a good OASW ability (you will need this in earlier maps, i.e. E1 Sub Hime) - she also has a low K2 requirement. Ignore Jintsuu (as you have no time to level her).
 * CLT - Get Kitakami and Ooi to Kai 2, very important. Extremely strong Night DA, installation killers.  If you can't get both to K2, at least have Kitakami at K2.
 * CA(V) - Get all 4 Myoukou sisters to K2 if possible, or at least level 60+. This will help you in the short and long run. Get Choukai to level 50, as she still has good stats even at Kai form. Have at least 2 CAV's in your fleet at Kai, at approx lvl 40-50.
 * (F)BB(V) - Get both FBB's to Kai Ni, or a minimum level of 60-70. They are one of the most important parts of your fleet as they can equip AP and T3 shells - bonus dmg against high armour and installations respectively. Get Mutsu to Kai, at around level 60.
 * CV(L) - All 4 CV's to Kai, and to a minimum level of 60, due to the nature of carrier task forces and combined fleets. Getting the both the dragon sisters to K2 will give you a good opening strike (high FP), and they have fairly high plane slots and strong equipment. LBAS, CV's and fast CVL's in particular have been particularly stressed in recent events, especially in late game event maps, i.e. E-6, E-7 Spring 2016. Get at least 2 CVL's to K2 - get both the Chitose sisters at CVL K2 form (as they are fast).
 * Auxiliaries/SS/etc - At least one AV at level 40. Get I-I68 or I-8 to level 30-40, in the case of using them as dmg buffers, gauge clearers or for routing purposes. This area however is not overly important.


 * Installations are in practically every event, so it's good to stock up on AP and T3 shells. At least 4 of both. High priority. 
 * Get more 20.3(2) and 20.3(3) main guns. You should get a lot of these from the Myoukou sisters.
 * Night battle equipment - You will get these from Sendai Kai Ni. High priority.
 * Planes - 10-12 Shiden K2/Reppuu, 6-8 Ryuusei/Ryuusei Kai, 6-12 Suisei/Suisei M12A. High priority. 
 * LBAS - Craft 4-6 T21 fighters for range. (Note that i said T21, not T21 skilled, as it is easier to attain for a new player). Have around 6-8 LBAS bombers, and get Saiun + Shiden K2's for air defence (as you lack interceptors).
