INTRODUCTION The 21st century, marked by the rapid processes of globalization, informatization, and digital transformation, demands not only technological, but also spiritual and moral maturity from humanity. The spiritual maturity of society, especially the moral education of the younger generation, is one of the important factors determining the future of each nation. Therefore, any education system, along with modern knowledge, considers the formation of spiritual and moral values in the individual as its priority task. In the Republic of Uzbekistan, educational documents also emphasize this aspect, and the harmonious formation of national and universal values in young people is noted as one of the central directions of educational policy[1]. At the heart of today's reforms is the issue of educating the new generation as a healthy, educated, strong-willed, patriotic, and at the same time, mature individuals with high moral qualities. In this regard, President Shavkat Mirziyoyev noted: "As we begin a new stage of development in our country, we must first of all educate our youth with new thinking. We must deeply instillin theirhearts theideas of goodness, justice, andloyalty to theMotherland." The above idea embodies the relevance of youth education, in particular, their spiritual and moral development. In achieving this goal, school education, especially educational work carried out from the initial stage, is of decisive importance.

Through these activities, students strive to master such moral qualities as independent activity, teamwork, a culture of behavior in the social environment, love for the Motherland, respect for the family, obedience to elders, honesty, diligence, conscientiousness. This process is effectively implemented through the student's direct interaction with surrounding social institutions - family, neighborhood, school, NGOs, religious andeducational institutions[4]. The term "social cooperation" is a multifaceted concept in pedagogy, which is often interpreted in the context of the socialization of the student's personality, their interaction with thecommunity, and theirinteraction with social institutions.In educational activities carried out at school, social cooperation is important not only as organizational support, but also as a means of enriching the content of education and upbringing, bringing it closer to social-real life[5]. This makes the role of extracurricular activities, organized on the basis of social cooperation,inspiritual and moral education even more relevant. The organization of educational activities based on social cooperation, on the one hand, ensures the social orientation of education, and on the other hand, requires a multifaceted approach to this activity. That is, extracurricular activities should be organized not only within the framework of the school, but also in cooperation with families, mahallas, libraries, museums, art centers, theaters,
