“…Environmental education is a process to build a human population in the world that is aware of and cares about the environment and all the problems related to it, and people who have the knowledge, skills, attitudes, and behavior to be able to solve various current environmental problems, and prevent the emergence of new problems in the neighborhood (Marpa, 2020;Syah et al, 2021). Environmental education is concerned with the biophysical environment and related issues; it is ultimately concerned with human beings, and the emphasis is not on the environment (Awayehu Gugssa & Aasetre, 2023;Clark et al, 2020;Braus et al, 2022). Humans must realize the importance of environmental awareness and sensitivity so all living things can coexist (Firdaus et al, 2020;Yeşilyurt et al, 2020).…”

Environmental education is one of the keys to people, especially students, having an awareness of protecting the environment. This qualitative study aims to investigate the best ways for school committees to play a role and how to adopt strategic management for environmental education to be sustained over the long term. The research subjects comprised one principal, five teachers, five students, and three school committee members. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and literature studies related to the strategic planning process and the role of school committees. The findings demonstrated that schools had to adopt a strategic management approach to accomplish environmental education goals, including formulation, implementation, assessment, and control. The first four years of school focused on implementing environmental education in school. For the next four years, the focus shifts to civilizing the environment within the school's internal environment. In the third four years, the school concentrates on acculturating the external environment. The school committee plays a vital role in implementing environmental education by considering school regulations, supervising, supporting schools financially, and actively participating in the process. This research implies that this research can be a basis for further research, especially in strategic planning and school committees.
