This study investigates the determinants of school dropout among children in South Jambi District and proposes strategies to address this issue. Conducted at the Sanggar Kegiatan Belajar (SKB) in South Jambi District, Jambi City, the qualitative descriptive research employed observation, interviews, and documentation as data collection methods. Informants included school dropouts, their parents, the Non-Formal Education Division's secretary, and SKB tutor teachers. Data analysis entailed data reduction, display, and verification. Findings revealed that school dropout stems from factors such as children's lack of interest, discomfort at school, academic difficulties, and parental regret over discontinuing their child's education. Additionally, environmental, parental, and economic factors emerged as prominent causes, while peer influence also played a role, with non-school-going friends discouraging attendance. Educational authorities and SKBs respond with interventions including teaching core subjects, skills development, and empowerment initiatives to reignite students' enthusiasm for learning. The study underscores the importance of parental, school, and governmental support to prevent school dropout and implement effective interventions.

This article aims to examine the efforts made by teachers to foster student awareness through the implementation of the second principle of Pancasila at MTsN 4 Buton Tengah. A qualitative case study method was employed, with informants including the principal, Pancasila and Civic Education teacher, and students at MTsN 4 Buton Tengah. The results indicate that teachers foster awareness through various habituation practices: students help their peers in need, students are given responsibilities to maintain classroom cleanliness, mutual respect is cultivated through the 5S principles (smile, greet, salute, politeness, and courtesy), honesty is promoted via an honesty canteen, and discipline is enforced by ensuring students arrive at school on time with sanctions for tardiness. This study is limited by its focus on the second principle of Pancasila. Future research should explore the implementation of other Pancasila principles at the junior high school level.
