Government policy in elementary center by using mobile-based polling school through Full day School in namely family, community, and school . Ajatappareng area is very well applied in Primary schools in the strengthening the moral of students by Ajatappareng area, namely Sidenreng using mobile-based polling. The application Rappang Regency, Enrekang Regency, of Full day School's policy is very , and interesting to be studied carefully because Parepare City are given criteria in of the pros and cons among the community, determining the character of schools that (Lynch, M, 2014). The responsibility of are effective and capable of managing education in Full day school policy is and utilizing all available resources to imposed on three environments, namely; achieve successful primary school family, school and community, (Patall, objectives in the form of qualified 2010). Educational autonomy is welcomed graduates and efficient.

So as a contra a family curriculum that cannot be consequence of the policy, some schools in separated from elementary school as the regions have not implemented full day well as the community, so that it can go school programs and some have even hand in hand. The need for curriculum canceled the program, Sidenreng Rappang synchronization in pre-school age and District, but there are still two schools that education of students in elementary implemented initially in all schools in the schools is a golden period imposed by district. Then the application of the Full day parents, communities, teachers and the School program should apply effective government to support full day school learning time, structured teaching and policy programs, (Zigler, Finn-Stevenson, opportunities for learning (Clark & Kirk, & Marsland, 1995). 2000). One of the efforts to implement Islamic education is refresher and renewal of Islamic values in people's lives in facing various challenges in various dimensions of life: socio- economic, cultural, political, science and technology, and so on (Kauerz, 2010). Where the challenges will be quantitatively good in the future. Polemic challenges in the education system are specifically presented by government policies with the term Full day School. In other words, that the Full day school policy is imposed on various demands of Muslims need an three environments, namely family, updated, steady and concrete response, school and community, (Thoidis & among others, with optimal ability to Chaniotakis, 2015).

Because (servitude) to God, so that it is less education is a process that must be taken realized in physical and spiritual by humans from birth to adulthood and movements of elementary school even to a lifetime. And through the students to fulfill religious requirements education process, it is the greatest asset and demands, such as studying, jihad and and the most important condition for the like. While in the area of practical realizing the Islamic mission, namely worship in the form of servitude to God rahmatan lil alamin; 2) Educational through physical and spiritual assets owned and held by Muslims are movements the implementation of the quite significant, both in terms of five pillars of Islam. quantity (quantity) and in terms of Integrated elementary schools from quality (quality) of human resources, various aspects can facilitate the physical and non-physical facilities and maximum implementation of education facilities are scattered throughout the sector by using mobile-based polling, so country, both those managed by the that the process of Islamic education and government or the private sector character can minimize problems in the (community), (Hough & Bryde, 1996). instrumental input sector (teachers, The challenges and threats as well methods, curriculum) and as opportunities for the development of environmental inputs (culture, tradition, Islamic education.

Therefore, the not optimal, thus giving rise to the idea actualization of Islamic education of applying full day school from the through Full day school is an effort to public and the government, (Herman, strengthen the resilience of Islamic 1984) . However, the problem in education in order to be able to elementary school has not been maximal overcome threats, manage challenges in implementing Full day School's and take advantage of existing policies, namely the integration of opportunities, (Gullo, Clements & committee administrators, parents, Bayless 1986). community leaders, academics The concept of learning Islamic (education experts), doctors, education and character oriented on psychologists and various related character education has led to elements in interpreting Full day school discrepancies in students' morals as policies. One example of activities in expected in elementary schools in the elementary schools, namely compiling Ajatappareng area. This is due to the fact the School Expenditure Budget Plan, that the learning process of Islamic sometimes does not involve the religious education and character is still committee and academics (elementary limited to moral knowing and moral school experts) as a whole, just sign the training (Olsen & Zigler, 1989).
