In this article, the attitud of high school students toward reactivation of the peer counsellor program in senior high schools is investigated. They were conducted in 10 high schools in 5 regions in Surabaya with a random sample of 854 students. The data were collected from July 2018 to September 2018 using a self-administered questionnaire. Results show that only 52.7% (n=450) of students knew about the program and 68% (n=581) of these students report a positive attitude toward the program. This research also found that a similar program exists in some schools.
