Abstract

Increasingly complex environmental problems, such as students’ low awareness
and concern for the cleanliness and sustainability of the school environment,
indicate that environmentally based character education has not been optimally
internalized in educational practice, as reflected in behaviors such as littering,
poor classroom maintenance, and limited participation in environmental
activities. This study aims to analyze the implementation of the Adiwiyata
Program at SMA Negeri 1 Gending as an effort to build environmental
awareness among students. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were
collected through interviews with the principal, vice principal, teachers, and
students; direct observation of student behavior across various areas of the
school; and documentation in the form of activity reports, school policies, and
program archives, and were analyzed descriptively. The results indicate that the
Adiwiyata Program has been comprehensively implemented in learning, student
activities, and school management, with the integration of environmental values
into lesson materials, student council activities, and school policies encouraging
observable changes in student behavior, such as properly disposing of trash,
maintaining classroom cleanliness, caring for plants, using reusable food
containers, and reminding peers to keep the school clean. Documentation
further highlights supporting factors, including the commitment of school
principals, the Adiwiyata organizational structure, and parental support, alongside
obstacles such as budget constraints, low participation among some teachers,
and limited ongoing training. The findings demonstrate that the synergy of policies, learning, school culture, critically influences the success implications of this research strengthening, program sustainabieducation into school policies and character in the next generation.
