The population in this study were the students of class X who were at the State Senior High School 7 Manado totaling 45 sample respondents using purposive sampling. The results of the study on the level of knowledge before reproductive health education was carried out in the good category were 7 respondents (15.5%), the sufficient category was 23 respondents (51.1%), and the less category was 15 respondents (33.3%). And the results of the research after the reproductive health education was carried out were in the good category of 25 respondents (55.6%), sufficient category 17 respondents (37.8%), and the poor category only 3 respondents (6.7%).
