Guidance and counseling programs are designed to improve education. These programs continue to evolve, especially the classical guidance programs that require adaptation to the current Covid-19 pandemic education system. However, due to a lack of planning, the development and implementation of the classical guidance program in state junior high schools during the Covid-19 pandemic have not been optimal. Thus, this study identifies the performance of the classical guidance program at state junior high schools during the Covid-19 pandemic, using predetermined standards. This study used program evaluation standards and criteria from the Guidelines for Performance-Based Professional School Counselor Evaluation. The guidelines highlight that professional school counselors should carry out classical guidance services using effective learning strategies and classroom management techniques for all counselees based on their needs. These standards and criteria were then formulated into three components to determine the success of the classical guidance program, namely planning, implementing, and evaluating the classical guidance program. The analysis of the evaluation results showed that the classical guidance program during the Covid-19 had not met the standard.

Students need to be able to achieve optimal self-development so personal guidance delivered through classical guidance needs to be considered. However, the material for classical guidance in the personal field that is by the needs of students and can be used as a reference or basis for guidance and counseling teachers is still limited. This study aims to find the right material according to the students' needs for classical personal guidance. The population in this study amounted to 2635 students with a sample of 347 students from 17 junior high schools. Sampling in this study used a simple random sampling technique with the Slowin formula. The research method used is descriptive quantitative using the INATBKBP questionnaire to collect research data. INATBKBP was developed based on Santrock's theory.The 10 material topics obtained become materials, bases, and references that can be used and developed by guidance and counseling teachers in delivering personal guidance through classical guidance to students. These topics are expected to help students to have more awareness and self-acceptance so that they can develop their potential and achieve optimal self-development.
