Abstract

This study explores the process of internalizing noble moral values in shaping the character of students at Islamic Senior High School Tarbiyah Islamiyah in Hamparan Perak, Deli Serdang Regency. The research aims to examine the strategies employed by educators, the role of the school environment, and the influence of Islamic teachings in fostering students’ moral development. A qualitative descriptive method was used, involving interviews, observation, and documentation as data collection techniques. The findings reveal that the internalization of moral values is carried out through integrated religious learning, exemplary behavior of teachers, and consistent enforcement of school rules. Religious activities such as congregational prayers, Quran recitation, and moral counseling sessions contribute significantly to building students’ discipline, responsibility, and respectful behavior. The study concludes that a comprehensive approach involving curriculum, extracurricular programs, and moral modeling is essential for developing students with strong Islamic character.
