This study is Quasi Experimental Research carried out with 32 students in the mentioned school based on Purposive Sampling.

The research results reveal that: (1) the levels of the core values of the students before ([x-bar]= 4.55, S.D.= 0.210) and after activity participation ([x-bar]= 2.21, S.D.= 0.581) were statistically different with the significance level of 0.05; and (2) the comparative results of the levels of core value of the students suggest that the students with differences in studied personal factors (gender, family status and parental occupations) have indifferent core values both in overall and aspect perspectives with the statistical significance level of 0.05.
