NEW YEAR TERM BEGINS!

It's time for MOS (Masa Orientasi Siswa) or students orientation time again. Of course, for 3 days, start from Monday to Wednesday (July 14th-16th, 2008), and there will be so many reports about the activities. Moreover, there are still so many agendas in 2 weeks. Because, after MOS, students will hold MKO or Malam Keakraban OSIS and PTA or Penerimaan Tamu Ambalan in the weekend. Not only that, our school will be busier because we will take a part in Salam Ulang Janji in Indonesian Scouts Anniversary (August 14th) and carnival in Indonesian Independence Day (August 17th). What a busy school!

MOS AGAIN
A student orientation in every beginning of year term is obliged to be followed by new students. Orientation program is held to introduce the new students to their new environment at school (school building, teachers and staffs, the way of study, extracurricular), students ethics, and as a forum where they can develop their talent and interest.


Students guidance or orientation itself is a part of national education system in Indonesia. So, usually MOS is held at the same time in both of state and vocational school. Before reformation era, MOS called as Penataran that used Penataran P-4 system and held for 6 days. Then, hopefully, new students can be more discipline, creative, make good adaptation, and more confident.

STUDENT NIGHT
After 3 days MOS, in the weekend school will hold student night called Malam Keakraban OSIS (MKO). In this program, students will be asked to show their abilities on stage. They may perform a short drama, sing a song, read a poem, dance, even a speech.

Student night will be held for twice: by OSIS and Pramuka. Both of student nights are the same: there will be shows on stage and campfire. But, Pramuka has different purpose in handling that student night called PTA. In this program, new students will be established as Pramuka Penegak.
