This study aims to determine the effect of the school environment on students' learning interest in Islamic Education (PAI) at SMP Puja Handayani Palembang. This research employs a quantitative approach with a descriptive correlational design. The sample consists of 50 students selected using a simple random sampling technique. Data collection techniques include observation and questionnaires using a Likert scale of 1–5 consisting of 20 statements.

The results show that the school environment is categorized as good with a mean score of 3.78, while students’ learning interest in Islamic Education (PAI) is categorized as fairly high with a mean score of 3.65. The correlation test indicates a strong relationship between the school environment and learning interest in PAI with a coefficient of 0.68. The regression analysis shows that the school environment has a positive effect on students' learning interest in PAI with the equation Y = 12.35 + 0.56X. The hypothesis test shows a significance value of 0.000 < 0.05, indicating that the school environment significantly affects students' learning interest in Islamic Education (PAI). The contribution of the school environment to learning interest is 46%, while the remaining 54% is influenced by other factors outside this study.
