==The Sims 3==
[[File:TS3-School.jpg|left]]Children and teens go to school every weekday, barring [[holiday]]s.{{Vgversion|TS3:S}} Each world has at least one school rabbit hole; if the player adds multiple schools to a world, Sims will attend the one that's closest to their home. Older Sims can also use the school to attend a [[painting]] class, get a job in the [[education]] career track{{Vgversion|TS3:A}} or enroll in [[Sims University|university]].{{Vgversion|TS3:UL}}
Children attend elementary school from 9:00am to 3:00pm, while teenagers attend high school from 9:00am to 2:00pm; the earlier end time exists to benefit teens who have part-time jobs. Teens who are not employed will still be let out at 2:00pm, which can be used as a good opportunity to get their homework done. Both school types share the same building. Unlike previous games in ''The Sims'' series, children are not taken away from their families for getting an F.
Line 49:
If ''[[The Sims 3: Generations|Generations]]'' is installed, children and teens can be enrolled into [[boarding school]] or an [[afterschool activity]]. Teens can also attempt to [[prank]] the school after hours.
If a [[meteor]] hits a school, then all sims attending will die.

==The Sims 4==
[[File:TS4_Grade_School_Icon.png|45px|left]][[File:TS4_High_School_Icon.png|45px|left]]Schools make a come-back in ''The Sims 4'', but not as rabbitholes like in ''The Sims 3''. They're like jobs, as Sims will walk towards their lot's
Unlike ''The Sims 2'', there aren't positive grades, such as A+, B+ or C+. In order for a child or teen sims to improve their grades, they'll have to go to school with a positive [[emotion]] ([[Focused (emotion)|Focused]] is suggested as it says so in the school panel), completing their [[homework]], doing extra credit work, working hard at class, and get extra performance boost from [[chance card]]s that randomly pop up while the Sim is still at school. These chance cards may give a large performance boost, a medium performance boost, a small performance boost, and the same goes for performance losses.
Line 157 ⟶ 159:
There are no disadvantages when a teen or a child has the lowest grade possible, except from an [[embarrassed]] moodlet.
If a child with the socially gifted [[Trait (The Sims 4)|trait]], or a teen reach enough [[mischief]] skill, they can have a partner in crime, and plan with them to do mischievous things at school such as throwing geeks at the lockers, flooding the school, fill the class with plastic
To reach grade B they'll need to get one skill at level 2 at one skill and to reach grade A the Sim must get level 4 at one skill (Level 3 for teenagers).
While a child is doing homework, a parent or older Sim, even a teen, can help them with their homework, to give the child a +2 focused boost, and finish homework earlier,
Once Sims age up to young adult. Having high grades will allow Sims to start their career level ahead. Level 2 for grade B and level 3 for grade A.
Line 169 ⟶ 171:
In ''[[The Sims 4: Parenthood]]'', a child or teen can work on [[school project]]s with up to five Sims working on a single project. If finished successfully, the children and/or teens that helped make the project will gain a performance boost.
In ''[[The Sims 4: Seasons]]'',
In ''[[The Sims 4: Snowy Escape]],'' children and teens who live in [[Mt. Komorebi]] will wear Japanese-styled uniforms to school. Sims who live in other worlds go to school in their everyday outfits.

* In ''[[The Sims 2: Seasons]]'', children and teens do not get summer holiday, but they will get a snow day when it snows heavily.
**In ''[[The Sims 3: Seasons]]'', children and teens do not have to go to school on [[Holiday#Leisure Day|Leisure Day]], which can be considered to be their summer holiday.
**In ''[[The Sims 4: Seasons]]'', players can make [[holiday]]s where children and teens don't have to go to school. By default, Sims stay home from school on Harvestfest, Winterfest and New Year's Eve.
* The names called during the graduation ceremony at city hall often sound like common names with the first letters of the first and last names switched, i.e. Geronica Vonzalez, Rant Grodiek.
* The Gooder Public School in [[Starlight Shores]] is probably named after the [[Gooder family]], a wealthy family from the same town. It's a little odd, considering it's a public school, and the family backstory doesn't seem to be associated with school nor education.
