Worm infection is a common disease among school-aged children that can adversely affect health, nutritional status, and learning ability. Healthy living behaviors (PHBS) play a crucial role in the prevention of such infections. This study aimed to describe the knowledge and attitudes of students regarding worm infections at Madrasah Tsanawiyah Hidayatul Islamiyah. A descriptive quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design was employed. The study sample consisted of 30 students from grades VII and VIII, selected through total sampling. Data were collected using knowledge and attitude questionnaires concerning worm infections and analyzed descriptively using frequencies and percentages. The results indicated that 1 student (3.3%) had low knowledge, 14 students (46.7%) had moderate knowledge, and 15 students (50.0%) had high knowledge regarding worm infections. Regarding attitudes, 16 students (53.3%) demonstrated good attitudes, 8 students (26.7%) showed moderate attitudes, and 6 students (20.0%) exhibited poor attitudes. The findings suggest that while the majority of students possess moderate to high knowledge and generally positive attitudes, some students still display inadequate attitudes, highlighting the need for ongoing health education initiatives in schools.
