LHS has double function. On one hand, FDS as an effort to enable teachers to fulfill their teaching hours 24 hours in a week, on the other hand as an effort to strengthen character education of students. Implicitly, strengthening character education is to support the optimization of teacher roles as part of the educational ecosystem and people who are at the forefront of learning. The role of teachers, especially as facilitators in the implementation of character education becomes the entry point of its success, and also as a vehicle to meet the needs of teacher teaching hours. This paper presents ideas on 13 facilitator’s roles that teachers can do. The application of FDS is expected to be filled by the role of facilitators presented in this paper, so it needs to be widely disseminated so that the school as soon as possible apply it.
