Yeah, Ruby should come see you at night for a new scene and then the next tier 26-50% will unlock.
Keep at it bro, i will still be following the development of the game until its finished even if it takes a decade lol

On the subject of this game's slow development towards being something more than a demo.
Here's the coursework section of the Academic training.
An important note for those of you who grind up stats ahead of where content is completed:
The variety in scenes like these is ultimately gated behind lower stats.
As Ruby does her academic training and evolves naturally you move from having to punish her during lessons to her doing well.
That means if you have Ruby at an Academic score of 25, then you should see most (but not all) of the scenes as you level her up to 50.
If you're already at 50+, then you skip all that content.
In the next update I'm just gonna turn on Console Mode (at least while it's ion development) and include a cheat-sheet of adjustable stats so you can tweak things instead of having to restart your game every time I add new content.
Updates are, as we all know, equal to butts.
Butts made by good old Derivative Generation.
Been a while since Penny got in on the action, she's an AI so she won't mind being made by the picture equivalent opf autocorrect right?
Ok, she doesn't look pleased about it. Or maybe that's the spanking.....

Thought I'd give the game a try and used the thread search function for "git" with no results. Do you use a source version control system and is it publicly available? I'd like to post the occasional nit if you're fine with it.
Referencing specific lines from outside the source code is quite hard when you only see the Ren'Py UI ^^
Edit:
By "nit" I was originally referring to typos/capitalization/missing characters/grammar issues I spot during my playthrough but I also hit an issue where the text doesn't match the state of the game.
During the intro/tutorial, the narrator will say "At the top is Ruby's COMBAT skill", however Combat is the stat in the middle. "Trust" is at the top.
Displayed ordering:
- Trust
- Punishment
- Combat
- Academics
- Horniness
Another interpretation may be that this sentence refers to the entire stat box in which case a different wording may be less confusing.
"In the top-right corner of your screen are Ruby's stats. The COMBAT skill [...]"
Edit 2:
Shortly after, the narrator will incorrectly state that there are no stat bars for Trust and Punishment. This change may have been introduced in the September updates, which I think have revealed some of the hidden stats. Your post mentioned something about a broken stat. (Edit 4: The "Trust" and "Punishment" stats were already there in February going by this thread.)
"There's no neat stat bar for Ruby's Punishment and Trust, but she'll react differently to you the more you push these up."
Edit 3:
If you choose the hard punishment, the strikes from 20 upwards will count 2 per iteration getting you to 26 instead of 25.
If you repeat the scene with different choices, the stat bars are displayed incorrectly (or the underlying values are not what they are supposed to be)

Wow, yeah I haven't thought about the tutorial in a while.
Yeah a LOT of that got broken by updates, I've fixed everything you've mentioned above to go out with the next update.
I'm not really doing anything in terms of publishing the source etc. but you're welcome to leave nitpicks etc. here, wherein I will leave you a spanked butt. Like this!
Have a School Uniform Summer Rose
On the subject of butts, the Patreon (which gained a paying member since this update! Wahoo!) has filled up enough for another commission so I've reached out to DK for the new art for the gym hotdogs, so the next update will have new NSFW content :O
Just to be sure: Is the tutorial going to need an overhaul?
If I wanted to post a collection of all the nit-able encounters I'd have to restart the game (didn't get that far anyways) and copy a lot of text to be able to reference everything in a somewhat useful way. If large parts of the tutorial (or even just the exact parts I'm referencing) need a bit of rewriting, this effort may be for naught.
Also maybe give me a value on a scale of 1-10 about how nitpicky you want me to be. I have been known to be a bit extra about words and English is not even my first language.

It'll definitely need some work, and I certainly don't expect that of you, but the tutorial will also want a full art overhaul as the budget flows in anyway, so it (with your already highlighted fixes) will suffice for now.
I've queued up those tweaks you've found so far for v0.04.5.4.
As for correcting the english. Find spelling mistakes (UK english, pointing out US english spellings is not correction) by all means, but don't worry about grammar and phrase.
Sounds good to me. Don't worry, I didn't intend to start spending all my time in hobby QA
