Abstract

This study aims to analyze baseline data regarding the factual state of transformational leadership, principals' emotional intelligence, and the effectiveness of implementing the Local Content (Mulok) curriculum on regional culture in elementary schools across Gorontalo City. Employing a mixed-methods approach—combining quantitative descriptive analysis with qualitative analysis—data were collected from 24 principals and 120 elementary school teachers via structured questionnaires and in-depth interviews. The analysis reveals that principals' transformational leadership falls into the "Adequate" category, with the dimensions of inspirational motivation and intellectual stimulation requiring further optimization. Principals' emotional intelligence is rated as "Good," particularly regarding self-awareness; however, emotional management during institutional conflict resolution remains inconsistent. Meanwhile, the implementation of the Gorontalo Cultural Local Content curriculum is deemed "Suboptimal" due to a lack of standardized teaching materials, teachers' limited pedagogical competence in integrating local philosophical values ​​(*Adat bersendikan Syara’, Syara’ bersendikan Kitabullah*), and insufficient monitoring by policymakers. The study recommends reconstructing leadership training models based on emotional intelligence and accelerating the development of digital modules for the Gorontalo Cultural Local Content curriculum.

Abstract

Background: The sustainability of the Back-to-School Movement (Gerakan Kembali Bersekolah/GKB) in coastal areas faces multidimensional challenges, particularly the low involvement and parenting capacity of foster parents. Objective: This community service aims to empower foster parents through the Transformational Parenting School (TPS) model to support the sustainability of GKB at SDN 8 Bilato, Gorontalo Regency, through the synergy of formal education management and primary school education. Method: The approach used was Participatory Action Research (PAR) incorporating education, clinical coaching, and the implementation of a learning monitoring card system. The targets were foster parents of children at risk of dropping out. Data were analyzed descriptively using qualitative approaches and quantitatively through the Gain Score test to measure the increase in partners' understanding. Results: The implementation of the TPS program successfully shifted the parenting paradigm from conventional-authoritarian to transformational. There was an 84% increase in the cognitive understanding of foster parents regarding motivating and facilitating the psychological needs of primary school-aged children. Managerially, the structured partnership between the school and foster parents effectively reduced GKB student absenteeism by 90% within the first two months. Conclusion: The integration of school-based transformational parenting contributes significantly as a preventive solution in maintaining the learning resilience of coastal children and ensuring the bottom-up sustainability of the GKB program.
