One of the most important levels of education is Senior High School (SMA). Therefore, school selection is crucial for parents and of course they want the best quality schools. However, every parent has different priorities according to their needs and abilities so that not all the desired aspects can be fulfilled. This research will find the best schools out of 18 private high schools in Central Jakarta based on predetermined priorities and divided into three cases based on the total cost of education, facility rating, and distance. This research begins with data collection using the Google Maps, Gojek, and Grab applications. Then, build a model consisting of objective functions, decision variables, parameters, and several constraints. This study aims to find the best private high school in Central Jakarta from three different cases based on different priority levels in terms of the total cost of education, facility rating, and distance. The mathematical model is constructed based on linear programming model. The problem is solved by using preemptive goal programming. This method is used because there are different priority levels for each goal so that not all predetermined constraints can be met. Simulation is conducted using the Python programming language that runs on the Google Colab application. From the simulation, one of the best private high schools in Central Jakarta was selected from each case. The result of this model can be used as a recommendation in selecting the senior high school.
