Teens FAQ

Q: How do I send my Teen to School? 

A: Sim Town High can be found next to the Preteen School on the Town Map. You will need to build it before you can send your Teens there. Once it’s built, tap on it and select a Teen to enroll and choose a class time that suits you. 

Whichever class time you choose, you have up to an hour either side of that time to send your pre-teen to school. For example, if your class starts at 12:00 PM, you can send them to school anytime between 11:00 AM & 1:00 PM, similar to adult Sims' work schedules. 

To send your Teen to school when it's time, open the Simtracker and tap on the flashing hat icon next to them. 

Q: Can my Teen study outside of school class hours? 

A: Yes, your Teen can also study at their desk. To do this, buy a Desk from the “Teen” tab in the Home Store. Once you have purchased your pre-teen’s desk, there will be options available for any kind of study style! 

Q: What do I get for sending my Teens to school and making them study?

A: Whenever your Teens finish a class or study at their desk, their grade level will increase. When they achieve a new grade, they will unlock a new item/reward. Grade levels range from C to A+++. 

Q: What Hobbies can my Teen participate in?

A: For a full list of hobbies, or more information on how hobbies work, check out our Hobbies FAQ.

Q: What does the "no" symbol mean?

A: This symbol (below) indicates that your Sim is not able to use the item that you have selected.

This error will usually occurr if your Sim is not the correct age to use that particular item. Try checking which tab the item can be found in. If it's usually in a tab of the Home Store for a specifc age group, your Sim will need to be that age to use the item.

Q: Where can I find items specifically for my Teen?

A: In the "Teen" tab of the Home Store.
