The grade matters

Every school has a grade. A new school starts at 3.6 and gets better or worse over time, depending on how you equip it:

  • Teachers: few, balanced or many (30, 50 or 75). More teachers improve the grade.
  • Salary: from 150 $ to 600 $ per day for each teacher. Good pay raises the grade.
  • Seats: 600, 1,000 or 1,500 pupils. Fewer pupils per school improve the grade. If the school is overcrowded, it drops.
