A.           Pendahuluan

Pentingnya karakter dalam kehidupan mulai dirasakan akhir-akhir ini. Banyaknya praktek illegal yang merugikan masyarakat diidentifikasi berakar dari pendidikan moral yang kurang. Ancaman penjara dan denda seakan tak digubris, sehingga muncullah anggapan “hukum bisa dibeli” yang semakin merugikan masyarakat. Rusaknya moral bangsa ini diharapkan dapat diperbaiki melalui perbaikan karakter generasi muda Indonesia yang dapat diterapkan di sekolah sebagai lingkungan sosial yang tidak bisa di nomorduakan. Oleh karena itu, pemerintah, melalui Kementrian Pendidikan Nasional mencanangkan pentingnya pendidikan karakter di sekolah.
