“The students from Athirah Islamic High School in Bone who are visiting consist of 12th and 10th graders. The 12th graders are here to gather information about the study programs at the MIPA Faculty, as they are preparing to continue their studies after graduating from high school. Meanwhile, the 10th graders are here to gain more insights and prepare thoroughly, as the new curriculum emphasizes independent learning and eliminates subject specialization. This, of course, requires careful selection of subjects to achieve their future goals,” stated Syamsul Bahri, S.Pd.I., M.Pd., the Head of Athirah Islamic High School in Bone.
