The present study was conducted to investigate the fit of the Classroom flourishing, System (FCSM) model among high school students. The present study was descriptive and correlational studies and in particular factor analysis and structural equation modeling method based on the partial least squares (PLS) approach. Using multi-stage cluster sampling method, 600 high school students in Arak were selected and used for research tools including the Systematic Observation Scale of Fish and Religion Classroom (2000) and a researcher-made questionnaire based on model welfare Welfare Allison et al. (2020) responded. In order to analyze the data, confirmatory factor analysis with partial least squares PLS method was used. Model validity was assessed using content validity, construct validity, divergent validity and convergent validity and its reliability was assessed using Cronbach's alpha and combined reliability. The results showed that the model has good structural validity so that the factor loads of all indicators on their respective factor was greater than 0.4. Divergent validity was checked using HTMT ratio and all HTMT ratios were less than 0.90. Convergent validity was also confirmed using mean variance (≤AVE 0.498) and reliability (RAO index greater than 0.60). Took. Cronbach's alpha reliability and combined reliability for all four second-order components were greater than 0.87, indicating satisfactory reliability. Based on the results, this model and related tools can be used to study the flourishing, of the classroom as well as the growth and development of flourishing.
