In this study, the k-means algorithm was used to group schools and categorize DPRD grants into very feasible, feasible, and impractical categories for better focus. Based on the results of computational analysis using the K-Means clustering algorithm using the Euclidean distance equation for the distribution of DPRD suction subsidies from 52 schools, 28 schools are in the very decent category and 11 schools are decent. In that category, 13 schools were found with fewer categories. executable category. RapidMiner Studio v.7.6 software can group schools based on the distribution needs of DPRD suction tools for more effective and efficient results.
