“…The school officially became an Adiwiyata school on January 11, 2021.An environmentally sound school implements four important components in its management: policies, curriculum, activity programs, facilities, and infrastructure. Amrullah and Nurcahyo (2021) said that environmental care behaviour will increase if students' knowledge about the environment increases to reduce environmental damage(Aqilah & Lathifah, 2023).Implementing the environmental program or Adiwiyata at SMP Negeri 2 Tanon is based on school vision number ten: a safe, healthy, neat, beautiful, cool, comfortable, and conducive school environment. Getting the Adiwiyata school title is not an easy thing; the school community must work together to help realise the Adiwiyata school through the Adiwiyata programs that the school has made.…”
