Education is critical in shaping the character and culture of the nation. Education functions to improve human abilities, following Law No. 20 of 2003 concerning the National Education System in Article 3, which states that national education functions to develop capabilities and shape the character and civilization of a dignified nation in order to educate the nation's life, including aspects of hard skills, and soft skills. One way to hone skills is to carry out character education since school by paying attention to the local wisdom of an area. Character education in Tri Hita Karana (THK) based schools is character education that applies the character of a balanced relationship between school residents and the creator of God Almighty, the balance of relations between fellow school members, and the balance of relations between school residents and the overall school facilities and infrastructure.Character education in THK local wisdom-based schools needs to be developed systematically to increase local excellence, national interest, justice, and international competition in world civilization. By applying the local wisdom of THK, schools can develop into a basis for developing the character and personality of human resources (HR) with high work skills, intense work and learning culture, and a culture of serving people sincerely and reasonably.
