The Sims 4 is far from being free of bugs, even a decade after its initial release. While the High school years The expansion pack hasn’t been out for as long as the base game, it seems to be plagued by more bugs than other packs. What is perhaps the most annoying issue of the pack has finally received a fix, but it is such an unusual glitch that it is quite strange that it was there in the first place.
The Sims 4 high school years Added the ability to follow teenage sims to high school and control them during the school day the same way some careers are active, such as doctor and detective. unfortunately, The Sims 4 is prone to bugs and glitches in general, and that means the high school experience isn’t as smooth as it could be. In some cases, entire events end up canceled depending on the status of the school’s principal, which can be incredibly frustrating.
Prom is back for Sims in high school
Even if Mae Prescott isn’t present
A recent update to The Sims 4 Finally addressed the issue where a prom would be canceled if Mei Prescott, the default principal in High school yearswas dead. That wasn’t even the only circumstance that could stop Prom, like May deciding to quit being the principal would also cancel the event.
To make matters more frustrating, it wasn’t as if the school didn’t hold prom for a year for the sake of remembering the former principal or anything like that. PROM would be stopped indefinitely. Plus, the reason why prams stopped being held wouldn’t be given either, leading to players wondering what happened to cause the bug.

Although annoying, this may not be the worst issue that has been fixed recently High school years, As another bug was solved along with the prom problem. Sims in high school should no longer randomly take exams and leaving the classroom, which would result in Sims receiving detention. Since exams and prom may be the most iconic parts of high school, it will be nice to have them hopefully work as intended. Now, if only more of the bugs this pack had would be fixed further, such as teens not being able to post on Social Bunny, or the Boba Tea place not being able to have anyone working at the counter.
Many other small issues have been fixed across packs
The extensive laundry list
Other issues that EA addressed in the same patch include quite a few more that primarily happened to Teen SimsSuch as being promoted at work counting towards the goal-oriented aspiration, or that teen sims working as lifeguards are now able to take vacation days.
Child Sims also got a bit of a break in this patch, and they were now able to quit after-school activities, which was another bug that was frustrating and a little weird in the idea that some unknown entity in the game made Kids continue after-school activities. At least the issues are less confusing than suddenly not having a prom ever again.
The Sims 4 is still bug ridden
And will probably stay that way
unfortunately, The forums are still filled with recent bug reportsShows that not every single thing has been dealt with in one place, which is – of course – expected. However, a new expansion has been revealed, and it looks like it will arrive in time for Halloween, fitting its theme of life and death.
Although it is not reasonable to expect that every issue will be fixed before the arrival of a new expansion, and at this point, it seems more likely that The Sims 4 will never be completely bug free, hopefully, the new pack will not come with . As many problems as previous packs.
