Implementasi Manajemen Peserta Didik dalam Meningkatkan Prestasi Non-Akademik Siswa SMA Negeri 1 Palangka Raya

Abstract

Education at SMA Negeri 1 Palangka Raya is not only oriented toward academic achievement but also emphasizes character building and the development of students' social skills through non-academic activities. This study explores the management of student affairs in enhancing students' non-academic achievement, as well as the supporting and inhibiting factors influencing its implementation. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and document analysis involving the principal, the vice principal for student affairs, extracurricular advisors, and students. The findings reveal that student management is implemented through the interconnected functions of planning, organizing, implementation, and supervision, which collectively support the development of students' non-academic achievement. The study also identifies several supporting factors, including the principal's participatory leadership, the competence of extracurricular advisors, support from parents and the community, and a well-structured management system. At the same time, the findings indicate several challenges, such as limited facilities and infrastructure, insufficient operational funding, low levels of student discipline, and suboptimal management of student achievement records. These findings suggest that effective student management contributes to creating a supportive environment for the development of students' non-academic achievement and the attainment of broader educational goals.
