The launch of the People’s School (Sekolah Rakyat) program in the 2025–2026 academic year has brought relief and joy to parents like Juwita and Dian. With the financial burden of school expenses lifted, they can now witness the positive transformation in their children. Juwita shared how her son, Fachri, has become more diligent, respectful, and independent since attending Sekolah Rakyat. Living in the dormitory has also led to a healthier daily routine for him, with guaranteed meals and care for his well-being.
Dian, another parent, expressed her gratitude for the program as it has helped her son, Aditya, learn discipline and grow into a more mature individual. She noted the visible improvements in his attitude and physical well-being, thanks to the structured schedule at Sekolah Rakyat. For parents from working-class families like Juwita and Dian, Sekolah Rakyat is not just an education program but a lifeline that supports their children’s education fully.
Both parents extended their heartfelt thanks to President Prabowo Subianto for creating Sekolah Rakyat and providing financial relief for families like theirs. They see the program as a place of renewed hope where children can grow independently, and the future feels more secure. Sekolah Rakyat is not just a school—it is a space where children thrive, families find relief, and the promise of a brighter future shines through.
