[19] School

School is an important aspect in the lives of your Sims, young and old. The
young can't bear to do without school, the old can't see them fail. School is
without a doubt, the most important thing that can happen to your Sim. It is 
for free and missing it can lead to the evil Agent of the Social Worker.

[19.01] Public School

Public school is just your basic taxpayer funded school. Teenagers go to 
school at 9am along with children. Carpool arrives at 8am. Teenagers return
home at 1pm and children return home at 3pm. Your children will bring back 
homework for them to complete. Finish the homework and go to school in a very
good mood to improve your Sim's grades.

[19.02] Private School

Private Schools have an advantage over the public system. The teenagers who
go to a private school go to work at level 2 instead of level one. That is
because careers think that private school students are more trustworthy than
their public counterparts. This school is a expensive school and an invitation
to the headmaster is necessary to get in. Read the section on inviting the
headmaster to know how to get in. Another difference between Private and 
Public is that Private School students have to wear uniform. Also, the motives
from a Private School drop slower than that of a public school.
