Implementation of the Eco School Program in Cultivating Environmental Responsibility among Students at Rungkut Menanggal I Elementary School, Surabaya

Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi oleh pentingnya pendidikan lingkungan dalam membentuk karakter siswa yang memiliki tanggung jawab terhadap lingkungan sejak usia dini. Sebagai upaya mendukung tujuan tersebut, SDN Rungkut Menanggal I Surabaya melaksanakan Eco School Program, yaitu program yang mengintegrasikan nilai kepedulian lingkungan ke dalam pembelajaran, budaya sekolah, dan kebiasaan sehari-hari siswa. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan pelaksanaan program, mengidentifikasi faktor pendukung dan penghambat, serta mengetahui dampaknya terhadap tanggung jawab lingkungan siswa. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan desain studi kasus. Data diperoleh melalui observasi, wawancara, dan dokumentasi yang melibatkan kepala sekolah, guru, tim Eco School, siswa, dan orang tua. Analisis data dilakukan melalui reduksi data, penyajian data, dan penarikan kesimpulan dengan teknik triangulasi untuk menjamin keabsahan data.

Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Eco School Program telah dilaksanakan secara terintegrasi melalui kebijakan sekolah, pembelajaran berbasis lingkungan, kegiatan penghijauan, pengelolaan sampah, konservasi air, dan pembiasaan perilaku ramah lingkungan. Keberhasilan program didukung oleh komitmen sekolah, peran aktif guru, keterlibatan siswa dan orang tua, serta ketersediaan sarana pendukung. Meskipun demikian, pelaksanaan program masih menghadapi kendala berupa belum meratanya kesadaran lingkungan siswa dan keterbatasan fasilitas tertentu. Program ini memberikan dampak positif terhadap perkembangan tanggung jawab lingkungan siswa, yang terlihat dari meningkatnya kesadaran menjaga kebersihan, kebiasaan memilah sampah, kepedulian terhadap lingkungan, serta inisiatif mandiri dalam menerapkan perilaku ramah lingkungan di sekolah maupun di rumah

 This research is motivated by the importance of environmental education in shaping students' character and responsibility towards the environment from an early age. To support this goal, SDN Rungkut Menanggal I Surabaya implements the Eco School Program, a program that integrates environmental values ​​into learning, school culture, and students' daily habits. This study aims to describe the program's implementation, identify supporting and inhibiting factors, and determine its impact on students' environmental responsibility. The study used a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data were obtained through observation, interviews, and documentation involving the principal, teachers, the Eco School team, students, and parents. Data analysis was carried out through data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions using triangulation techniques to ensure data validity.

The research results show that the Eco School Program has been implemented in an integrated manner through school policies, environment-based learning, reforestation activities, waste management, water conservation, and the promotion of environmentally friendly behavior. The program's success is supported by school commitment, the active role of teachers, student and parent involvement, and the availability of supporting facilities. However, program implementation still faces obstacles in the form of unequal environmental awareness among students and limited facilities. This program has had a positive impact on the development of students' environmental responsibility, as seen in increased awareness of maintaining cleanliness, the habit of sorting waste, concern for the environment, and independent initiatives in implementing environmentally friendly behavior at school and at home.
