Sims are able to bring hobby friends even if the hobby friend is in another school. Children will only bring child hobby friends, and teens will only bring teen hobby friends. Children and teens can now bring hobby friends from school if they succeed at an appropriate hobby chance card. In addition, Freetime added a Hobby Friend feature, but this does not work for schools, and only works properly for jobs. If the friend is a townie, then sims who are in public school cannot bring downtownies, socialites and techs, and sims who are in private school can only bring downtownies, socialites and techs. Sims who are in private school will only bring playable sims who are in private school. Sims who are in public school will only bring playable sims who are in public school.

Private School Mod - UPDATE 2: Sometimes the game wouldn't show the notification for snow day, this has been fixed. Private School Mod - UPDATE 1: You will now be charged on snow days, too. If you end up with less than 100 simoleons, the student will be put into public school. When it's time to pay, the game checks each student individually starting from the one with the lowest neighbor ID. This means you won't be charged on weekends and on snow days.

You will be charged at 6am on days your sim is supposed to be at school. This mod fixes Maxis' code and makes it so that your household needs to pay 100 simoleons per each child/teen studying in private school.
