The survey involves a total of 100 students as respondents which is each school represents 50 students from SMK Kudat and SMK Abdul Rahim. The data obtained were analyzed by SPSS software (Statistical Package for Social Science) using descriptive analysis to obtain percentage and frequency as well as correlation analysis to assess the relationship between knowledge and student engagement in the 3R activities. The results found that each school has an alternative to implement the 3R concept. Student knowledge is mostly satisfactory. There is the relationship between the variables that are higher knowledge among students directly increases the level of involvement in 3R activities at school.
