Education is for all nations and belongs to all people of all ages, social status, regardless of ethnicity, religion, race, and customs. Unfortunately various educational problems arise when cultural values shift from their nature. Education emerged as an institution deliberately formed by the community to encourage the quality of the creation of people who have a work ethic, cultured, characterized, and civilized. Education is not at the level of class and stratum, but also the process of humanizing humans. Answering the challenges and paradigms of local education is needed education management that supports local culture as part of a curriculum that is built based on local needs. Education is not uniformity but empowerment and independence. With the hope that the knowledge of local communities produced from generation to generation can be used as a wealth of economic resources in the form of cultural security, natural resource security and of course the existence of food security.
