Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the level of parental satisfaction with the educational services at SDIT Kartika Buana and to formulate strategies for improving service quality through a synergistic approach between the school and parents. The research employed a quantitative descriptive method using the Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA) approach. The sample consisted of 50 respondents randomly selected from a population of 319 students. The research instrument was a Likert-scale questionnaire developed based on the five dimensions of service quality as defined by Kotler and Armstrong, as well as Zeithaml and Bitner, namely: tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy. The findings indicate an average satisfaction level of 3.93 and an expectation level of 4.20, resulting in a conformity level of 95%. The Cartesian analysis revealed that the quality of the learning program, teacher competence, and the alignment between cost and educational quality are key priorities for improvement. Meanwhile, teacher behavior and the Tahfidz (Qur’an memorization) program fall under the category of aspects that should be maintained. This study highlights that synergy between the school and parents is a critical strategy in maintaining and enhancing the quality of educational services, particularly within integrated Islamic elementary education institutions.

Abstract

This study examines the Apitan tradition as a form of Living Hadith in the social life of the people of Tlogorejo Village, Karangawen District, Demak Regency. This tradition is carried out every month of Dzulqa'dah as a form of gratitude for a safe and peaceful village, an abundance of sustenance, and as a means of strengthening friendship and maintaining harmony between residents. Using a descriptive qualitative approach and the hadith living method, this study highlights how Saw's prophetic values such as ukhuwah, social concern, and spiritual education are internalized in local cultural practices. In contrast to similar traditions in other areas that are colored by puppet performances, Apitan in Tlogorejo is filled with public recitation and tambourine performances as a form of adaptation to Islamic values. The results of the study show that the Apitan tradition has a significant impact on the social, religious, cultural, economic, and educational aspects of the community. This tradition is not only the preservation of culture, but also a means of actualizing the values of the hadith that are alive and developing in the local context. Thus, Apitan reflects a harmonious meeting between religion and culture that is able to strengthen the Islamic identity of the community within the framework of local wisdom.
