A total of 113 students were selected as sample of this study, but only 104 students attend and complete the questioner during data collection schedule. The research instrument used a Google Form Questionnaire.

RESULTS: Data analysis found that age mean of 104 respondents’ student was 13.42, meaning that the average age of the respondents was 13–14 years. Data analysis also found that the pre-test mean value of knowledge about TB prevention was 74.42 and mean value of the post-test was 84.81. Paired sample t-test results indicate that there is a significant difference knowledge about TB prevention before and after education (ρ = 0,0001).
