This is due to the fact that green schools with sustainable environmental programs are expected to produce individuals with environmentally responsible behavior. Therefore, this study was designed to analyze the environmentally responsible behavior (REB) in schools with an environmental culture based on the personality possessed by the high school students. This paper presented descriptive correlation metode. The green high school students used as respondents were selected through multiple random sampling techniques. The results showed that agreeableness and consciousness played an important role in shaping the environmental management and persuasive actions of the students. It was also discovered that agreeableness was very important to economic actions. Stakeholders need to consider on individuals with high conscientiousness and agreeableness personality traits in implementing environmentally responsible activities.
