Academics[edit]

The school curriculum adheres to the standard Indonesian high school curriculum. The duration of study is three years. In the first year, students take up to 17 classes each semester, i.e. three science classes, four social studies classes, four language classes, integrated math class, religion, civics, physical education, music, and IT. In the second year, students are streamed into science and social studies programs, this reduces the number of classes to about 14 per semester.

More than 80% of the students studying at SMA Negeri 8 Jakarta are streamed into the science program. Tutorials are mandatory for all students in grade 11 and 12. Teachers from a partner tutor school come to class twice a week to help students learn. Students take three foreign language classes, including English, German, and one elective foreign language class (Japanese, Mandarin, or French). At the end of senior year, students take the National Examination in order to receive a diploma.

The school offers Program Kelas Internasional (International Class Program) which is based on the British curriculum, and an academic acclerated program for gifted students.

Admission[edit]

Admission for RSBI class usually opens in April and can last until June. The applicants take multiple examinations to test their academic aptitudes, foreign language fluency, and computer literacy. In addition, every applicant undergoes an interview and a psychological testing. The admission officers take applicant's score in National Examination, a standardized test for all students who wish to graduate middle school, into account.

The International Class Program opens its admission earlier, usually in March. All the applicants wishing to be enrolled in international class undergo a similar process as applicants for RSBI class.

Two months after commencing their studies in high school, students of 10th grade who are attending RSBI class are eligible to apply for acceleration program. They then go through another selection process which involves their parents. Accepted students go to school six days a week (including lab on Saturday) and finish their high school in two years.

Student life[edit]

One characteristic of SMA Negeri 8 Jakarta is the number of students living in rental housings, known as kost, around campus. This is due to the fact that the school attracts students from different part of country, and therefore they have to leave their hometowns to study and live in South Jakarta, arguably the most affluent part of Jakarta. SMA Negeri 8 Jakarta is not a boarding school and therefore it doesn't provide any dormitories for its students, but rental housings are common in its neighborhood.

SMA Negeri 8 Jakarta is also known for its leadership enrichment programs. Upon entering high school, students are welcomed with a leadership training organized by faculty members. Later in the second semester, students attend a leadership program organized by student government on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. This is the prerequisite for students to be able to participate in student groups. This is also one opportunity for underclassmen to get to know more about their upperclassmen.

Students of 11th grade participate in a trip to rural area called TeSIS (Temu Sosial Ilmiah Smandel), where they are hosted by local families. Students, in group, then conduct a research in science or social studies, and present their findings to teachers and researchers, mostly from universities and Indonesian Institute of Sciences. When this trip is coming to an end, student volunteers from both 10th and 11th grades hold a charity event involving locals.

Extracurricular activities[edit]

OSIS or student government is a part of student life at SMA Negeri 8 Jakarta. Students are encouraged to apply for membership at student government, which consists of executive and legislative branches. Pengurus OSIS is the executive branch with the membership of 18 students selected from a leadership development program to serve for 1 year. Perwakilan Kelas is the legislative branch, and among its duties are accommodating the aspirations of the student body and supervising events organized by student group. Membership of Perwakilan Kelas varies each year, but usually around 24 students are selected through a regeneration program commencing at the beginning of every academic year to serve for two years.

Students take part in at least one of ten non flexible listed student groups and organizations designated as subseksi (Indonesian: subsection). There are also flexible subseksi that students can join even if they already have one nonflexible subseksi. Subseksi are popular among students as a way to network with other students, faculty members, and alumni.

Every year, each subseksi organizes programs involving civitas academica and/or general public outside campus. The proposal of these programs is discussed in a plenary meeting with student government and faculty members, and the programs are then reviewed in another plenary meeting. The latest addition to student organization, General English Syndicate (Genesys), was founded in 2011. The structure of student government at the school is a mixture of the standard Indonesian high school system and Indonesian political system, a concept which was born after the official visit of the members of student government to Indonesian Parliament.

There are also non-subseksi student groups at the school. They are not under the realm of student government and do not organize events involving external parties. They include Study Club (for students wishing to compete in National and International Science Olympiad) and Bukit Duri Beavers (baseball and softball team).

Traditions[edit]

Student Groups regeneration[edit]

To be involved in official student groups recognized by student government and the school itself, students of the 10th grade undergo a regeneration process organized by the senior members of the groups, usually 11th graders. The regeneration period is a leadership program offered by the school which prepares students to be a participant of student life at SMA Negeri 8 Jakarta. Activities often includes hands on training, forum, and several group assignments. On the last day of the event, students spend the night together and they are later inaugurated by the student government as official members of the student groups.

Upacara Panji[edit]

A flag ceremony is conducted every Monday at virtually all Indonesian schools, but at this school, with the Independence Day Ceremony being an exception, there is one flag ceremony conducted only once a year. Upacara Panji is the inauguration ceremony for the officers serving for both branches of OSIS (central student government), where the names and positions of officeholders are officially announced by the Principal. It is also unique because it involves new students and it displays intricate military parade.

Event organizing[edit]

There are tons of student organized events every year. Most of them are listed as student group initiated programs, but all of them fall under the responsibility of Pengurus OSIS, the executive branch of student government, and are supervised by Perwakilan Kelas, the legislative branch.
