This study aims to analyze the implementation of religious moderation literacy in the local content curriculum at SMA Ma’arif 1 Pamekasan and examine its implications for students’ character formation. As an educational institution under the Ma’arif Nahdlatul Ulama Education Institution, the school is committed to internalizing Ahlussunnah wal Jama’ah An-Nahdliyah values. This research focuses on the integration of religious moderation values into classroom learning, school culture, religious practices, and extracurricular activities. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, then analyzed descriptively and interpretively. The findings show that religious moderation literacy is implemented through an Aswaja-based local content curriculum emphasizing tawassuth, tawazun, tasamuh, and i’tidal. Its implementation appears in learning materials, Qur’an recitation, collective prayers, istighotsah, tahlil, yasinan, NU studies, Islamic holiday commemorations, and religious extracurriculars such as hadrah, tambourine, and student organizations. These practices contribute positively to students’ tolerance, discipline, responsibility, respect for teachers and parents, social awareness, and nationalism. This study concludes that religious moderation-based local content is an effective model for developing religious, moderate, and nationally minded students.
