During the Covid-19 pandemic era, student activities are not so active than before. Most of the schools start prioritizing on formal teaching-learning process online activities. At the same time, they ignore student activities that have been prepared by the student council. As we know that schools already spare budget annually for the plan of student activities, so the activities should be created as well. Although student activities cannot be done face-to-face, student activities can also be done online. At SMP Dharma Loka, the school still allows the student council to hold student activities.
