<![CDATA[This research is driven by the urgent issue of rigidity in effective learning hour policies and the national curriculum, which creates conflicting program priorities and discrepancies in academic calendars, resulting in weak cross-sectoral synergy between the Ministry of Religious Affairs and the Department of Education. This condition poses a serious obstacle for Islamic Religious Extension Officers in fulfilling their strategic role within formal educational institutions to mitigate the moral degradation of adolescents. Utilizing a descriptive qualitative research method with a public policy analysis approach based on William N.
