The details
I originally built this school a year ago basing much of it on Australian schools. Here schools often have a few small buildings with a tuckshop (cafeteria) with open eating areas under trees. I played the original as a simlogical school (see download for the school mod here:
http://www.simlogical.com/sl/Sims2P...ims2_School.htm) The original had a huge lot of custom content that I didn't want to upload here. I rebuilt the school on a new unused lot, made some changes to the upstairs classroom configuration, enlarged the admin block to give a decent principles office and halved the custom content. The lot is zoned residential as that is how I played it with a principle living in the flat above.

Community Lot: If you would rather play this as a community lot it's easy to change the zoning. Load the lot and open the cheat window with CTRL-SHIFT-C and type in changeLotZoning community. Save and exit to the neighbourhood. The lot should now be zoned community.
Anyone who has read my legacy or OWBC might recognize these guys.
